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.

Simmer for 20 minutes, stirring frequently to avoid burning. Season with salt and white pepper, then strain through a chinois and hold for later use.

SEAFOOD ALFREDO SAUCE
Creamy and delicious! This is very quick to make since the shrimp and crab is already cooked. Bay scallops are so small that they cook in two minutes. You can make this with just shrimp or with any combination of the seafood mentioned in the recipe. I sometimes add about 1/4 cup dry white wine before adding the milk and half and half. I let it cook for about 2-3 minutes and then proceed. This dish can be served over pasta and also over rice.

Steps:
- In a medium size skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until aromatic, (about 2 minutes), stirring constantly, and taking care not to let the garlic burn.
- Sprinkle in the flour and whisk for about 1 to 2 minutes, just to get the flour a little heat and mix with the butter and garlic. Slowly whisk in the milk and cream cheese, whisking until the mixture is smooth. It will look curdled at first, but continue whisking for 2-3 minutes, it will come together to form a smooth, creamy sauce. Stir in the Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper and parsley. Stir until the cheese is melted and the sauce is the desired consistency. (Cook for 2-3 minutes for a thicker sauce or remove right after the cheese is melted for a thinner sauce). Set aside and keep warm.
- In a large size Dutch oven or large size sauce pan, over high heat, bring 6 to 8 cups of water to a boil, add a dash of salt and about a tablespoon of oil to the water. Once the water is a consistent rolling boil, add your pasta and reduce heat to medium. Boil pasta until al dente, (about 8 to 12 minutes), stirring occasionally to keep the pasta from sticking together.
- In a medium size skillet, add 2 tablespoons butter over medium-high heat, add shrimp and scallops and salt, sauté until shrimp turn an orange color, now, quickly and gently fold in the broccoli and crabmeat.
- Add the Alfredo sauce to the Al dente pasta, toss well to coat the pasta in sauce and then gently fold in the seafood mixture. Serve hot.
- Makes 4 to 6 servings of pasta and sauce.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your sauce.
- Don't overcook the shrimp. They should be cooked just until they are opaque and pink, or they will become tough.
- Add the shrimp to the sauce at the end of cooking. This will help prevent them from overcooking.
- Serve the sauce over your favorite pasta. You can also use it as a dip for bread or vegetables.
- Garnish the sauce with fresh parsley or chives. This will add a pop of color and flavor.
