SEAFOOD ALFREDO

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h5m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 cloves garlic
1/2 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
4 ounces lightly salted butter
1/4 medium Vidalia onion, julienned
24 ounces heavy whipping cream
8 ounces white wine, such as Chablis or Chardonnay
12 to 15 littleneck clams, rinsed and cleaned
Pinch sea salt
Pinch cracked black pepper
1/2 pound jumbo lump crabmeat
1/2 pound scallops
1/2 pound jumbo shrimp with tails, peeled and deveined
2 ounces Pecorino-Romano cheese, grated
2 ounces Parmesan-Reggiano, grated
2 green onions, cut into 1/4-inch slices
Pasta, for serving

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.

SHRIMP FETTUCCINE ALFREDO



Shrimp Fettuccine Alfredo image

This take on a classic Italian-American recipe is super easy to make. Slightly reducing the cream and adding a hefty dose of cheese means you don't have to use flour to thicken the sauce.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Kosher salt
12 ounces fettuccine
Olive oil, for tossing
3/4 pound large shrimp (about 16), peeled and deveined, tails removed
Freshly ground black pepper
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
2 cups heavy cream
2 pinches freshly grated nutmeg
1 1/2 cups freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and salt generously. Add the pasta, and boil according to package directions until al dente, tender but still slightly firm. Strain, and toss with a splash of oil.
  • Meanwhile, arrange the shrimp in a single layer on a large pie pan or paper plate, and pat them with a paper towel until completely dry. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat, and add 2 tablespoons of the butter. When the butter melts, raise the heat to medium-high, and invert the plate of shrimp over the skillet so the shrimp fall into the pan all at once. Cook the shrimp, without moving them, until the underside is pink, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip the shrimp, and cook until fully pink and cooked through, about 2 minutes more. Transfer the shrimp to a bowl.
  • Reduce the heat to medium, and add the remaining 6 tablespoons butter. Scrape the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon to release any browned bits. When the butter has mostly melted, whisk in the cream and nutmeg and bring to a simmer, then cook for 2 minutes. Lower the heat to keep the sauce warm.
  • Whisk the Parmigiano-Reggiano into the sauce. Add the shrimp and cooked pasta, and toss well. Season with salt and pepper. Serve hot in heated bowls.

I didn't want to cook tonight, but I had a bag of Seafood Combo (the software wouldn't accept "Seafood Combo" in the ingredient list. It's a bag of different kinds of frozen cut-up seafood, like mussels, calamari and shrimp) in the freezer, so I created this yummy dish. It's really easy to make. You can find bags of frozen Seafood Combo in the freezer section with the other frozen meats. I used mushroom Alfredo.
