Dive into the richness of the sea with this Salmon and Shrimp Alfredo - a creamy, dreamy dinner option that's surprisingly easy to make!
_____Ingredients:_____
- 1/2 pound raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 salmon fillets (4-6 ounces each)
- 6-8 oz Parmesan cheese, grated
- 8 oz fettuccine pasta
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
_____Directions:_____
1. Cook the fettuccine according to package instructions until al dente, drain, and set aside.
2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and sauté for 1 minute.
3. Add the shrimp and salmon to the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and cook until the shrimp are pink and the salmon is flaky, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
4. In the same skillet, add the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Lower the heat and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.
5. Chop the cooked salmon into bite-sized pieces. Return the salmon and shrimp to the skillet with the Alfredo sauce, and gently toss to combine.
6. Add the cooked fettuccine to the skillet, tossing to coat the pasta in the sauce. Stir in the lemon juice and parsley.
7. Serve hot, garnished with more parsley and grated Parmesan if desired.
