- In a large pan, add a splash of oil and allow to heat up.

- Bring to a simmer and allow to reduce by half.

- Add the seafood (and any of its resting juices) and parsley and stir to combine.
- Toss the sauce with cooked pasta and a splash of the pasta cooking water and toss to coat the pasta. Serve sprinkled with parsley.

Steps:
- Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms, garlic, and nutmeg; sauté until mushrooms are brown and tender, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Stir in cream. Remove mushroom mixture from heat.
- Cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted water until tender but still firm to bite. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup cooking liquid. Return pasta to pot. Add mushroom mixture, 2 1/2 cups cheese, 1/2 cup parsley, and reserved cooking liquid. Toss over medium-high heat until sauce coats pasta. Season with salt and pepper. Mix in remaining 1/4 cup parsley. Transfer pasta to bowl. Serve with remaining cheese.
Tips:
- Utilize fresh ingredients for optimal flavor. Prioritize high-quality linguine, heavy cream, and freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the linguine. This will prevent the pasta from cooking evenly and becoming mushy.
- Reserve some of the pasta water before draining. This can be added to the sauce to help it achieve a smooth and creamy consistency.
- Season the sauce to your preference. Add salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste.
- Garnish the dish with fresh herbs like basil or parsley for an extra burst of flavor.
