Steps:
- For the bechamel sauce: Melt the butter in a saucepan. Whisk in the flour and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Slowly whisk in the milk. 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.
- For the seafood alfredo pasta: Bring a large pot of water to a boil to reheat the cooked pasta. In a saute pan or small saucepan, heat the bechamel sauce to a simmer. Add the Parmesan and stir to melt the cheese. Add the crabmeat and toss to warm.
- Sprinkle the shrimp with salt and pepper. Heat a large saute pan over high heat. Add the grapeseed oil and then the shrimp to the pan. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, then flip the shrimp and finish cooking, another 1 to 2 minutes. Remove the shrimp, leaving the oil in the pan. Hold the shrimp for plating.
- Add the sliced garlic to the shrimp pan and saute until it just begins to brown around the edges. While the garlic is cooking reheat the pasta in the boiling water, about 1 minute. Strain the pasta, add it to the pan with the garlic and toss.
- Add the bechamel and crab to the pasta and toss. Add the lemon juice, Chicken stock and cream and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add the egg yolks and toss to incorporate. Cook for 1 minute to help thicken the sauce. Add the shrimp and toss.

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.

My guest can't believe I prepared this dish myself. This rich, creamy main dish features plenty of seafood flavors with a hint of garlic and lemon. Frozen peas and a jar of Alfredo sauce make it a simple supper that will be requested time and again.-Melissa Mosness, Loveland, Colorado

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.

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:
- Fresh seafood is key: Make sure your mussels are fresh and alive before cooking. Look for mussels with tightly closed shells and no foul odor.
- Clean the mussels thoroughly: Before cooking, clean the mussels by scrubbing them with a stiff brush and removing any barnacles or debris. Pull off the beards (the stringy fibers) and rinse the mussels under cold water.
- Use a large pot: Mussels tend to expand during cooking, so use a large pot to prevent overcrowding. This will ensure that the mussels cook evenly.
- Don't overcook the mussels: Mussels cook quickly, so be careful not to overcook them. Overcooked mussels become tough and chewy. Cook them just until the shells open, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add some vegetables: For a more flavorful dish, add some vegetables to the sauce, such as chopped onion, garlic, bell pepper, or mushrooms.
- Serve with pasta or rice: Seafood Alfredo with mussels is typically served with pasta or rice. Choose a pasta that will hold the sauce well, such as penne, rigatoni, or fettuccine.
Conclusion:
Seafood Alfredo with mussels is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a casual weeknight meal. With its combination of tender mussels, creamy Alfredo sauce, and flavorful herbs and spices, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a seafood dish that is both elegant and satisfying, give Seafood Alfredo with mussels a try. You won't be disappointed!
