1 (12 ounce) package fusilli pasta
½ cup salted butter
1 small onion, finely chopped
4 cloves garlic, chopped
½ cup chopped fresh parsley
2 teaspoons curry powder, or to taste
¾ pound uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined

While pasta is cooking, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, and 1/2 cup parsley; cook until onion is tender and has turned translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in curry powder. Add shrimp and crabmeat. Cook and stir for 4 minutes. Stir in cream, Parmesan, salt, and pepper. Bring to a gentle boil and cook until sauce thickens, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour sauce over pasta and toss to coat. Garnish with remaining parsley.
