Steps:
- Put a large pot of water on to boil with two teaspoons of salt in it. When the water comes to a boil add the pasta and cook according to package directions.
- Combine the milk and cream in a microwave safe container. Heat in the microwave for two minutes and 30 seconds
- Meanwhile put 6 Tablespoons of butter and the ½ teaspoon of garlic into the large sauce pan over medium-high heat. Whisk occasionally until melted.
- Turn the heat down to medium. Whisk in the flour, salt and pepper. Cook, whisking constantly for 30 seconds.
- Pour in a few Tablespoons of the warm milk mixture and whisk until smooth. Continue to add a few Tablespoons of the warm milk at a time, whisking until smooth after each addition. After the sauce is thin add the rest of the milk mixture and whisk again to combine.
- Add the cheese and whisk frequently until the cheese is melted and the sauce is slightly thickened. The sauce can be served at whatever thickness you like. The longer you cook it, the thicker it will be. Generally, I serve it when it is the consistency of slightly thin gravy.
- Taste the sauce and add additional salt and pepper if desired.
- Keep the sauce on low heat, whisking occasionally while you cook the seafood.
- In a large skillet, heat 1 Tablespoon of olive oil and 1 Tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium- high heat. When it melts add the scallops and cook for 1-2 minutes until starting to color and then flip and do the same on the other side. If the scallops start to release a lot of water pour it off. Remove the scallops to a plate.
- In the same skillet heat 1 Tablespoon of butter and 1 Tablespoon of the olive oil over medium-high heat. When it melts and sizzles add the shrimp. Cook shrimp for about 2 minutes on the first side.
- Add the Old Bay or Cajun seasoning and flip the shrimp with a spatula to cook it about a minute on the 2nd side until cooked through. Remove shrimp to the plate with the scallops.
- Drain the cooked pasta.
- Plate the pasta in a large family style flat bowl or in individual pasta plates.
- Pour the sauce over the pasta and scatter the cooked seafood on top.

Steps:
- For the roasted garlic: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Using a basting brush, coat the garlic with the olive oil, place on a baking sheet, cover with aluminum foil and roast until the garlic lightly browns and softens to the touch, about 1 1/2 hours. Let cool, then roughly cut and set aside.
- For the sauce: In a large saute pan (12- to 14-inch nonstick preferred) on medium-high heat, add the roasted garlic, butter and onions and saute until the onions are translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the heavy cream, wine, clams, salt and pepper and bring to a boil. (Do not walk away as cream has a tendency to boil over.) As the cream starts to boil, adjust the flame to a lower setting to prevent it from boiling over. Simmer the sauce until more than half of the clams have opened; The sauce will have reduced and thickened by almost half. Add the crabmeat, scallops and shrimp and simmer until the shrimp starts to curl up and the scallops start to swell, about 1 1/2 minutes per side. Add the Romano, Parmesan and green onions. The sauce will immediately start to thicken. Simmer for just about 1 minute to incorporate the Romano and Parmesan cheeses. Remove from the flame and serve over your favorite pasta.
SCALLOPS ALFREDO
When Georgia Stott of New Glarus, Wisconsin went back to school while still working full-time, fast-fixing recipes became a "necessity of life," she recalls. Here, the self-described "hard-core recipe addict" shares a speedy seafood supper. TIP: "Try substituting other seafood or herbs to suit your tastes," she suggests.
