SEAFOOD PENNE

Last week a friend and I had a wonderful lunch in a small restaurant/Lounge called Hedi's Wine- Bistro in Salmon Arm B.C. We started off with baked Camanbert with a whole head of roasted garlic-wonderful. Then we had this entree it was so delicious that I asked the chef for the recipe and he obliged. The measurements are for fresh or defrosted sea food- You may be a bit generous with measurement of the seafood. If the seafood is a bit too saucy you may add a tsp of corn starch shortly before finishing the recipe. I am sure that you will enjoy it!
