SPICY SHRIMP AND SCALLOP ALFREDO



Spicy Shrimp and Scallop Alfredo image

This just came to me when trying to figure out what to do with 1 lb of large shrimp and about 10 large scallops! I used what I had in the fridge, and if I had some fresh mushrooms I would've added them also that is why they are optional in the ingredient list. The picture I took is actually from the day I created the dish

I make this spicy shrimp pasta a lot because it's a something my family never seems to get tired of. The sauce is so fast to make I can get it done while the fettuccine is cooking. In the past, I have added red peppers and spinach, but who's to say you could not add mushrooms or more or less spice. -Stephanie Beluk, Sharpsburg, Georgia

Provided by Bren

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Pasta     Shrimp

Time 20m

Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 ounces dry fettuccine pasta
1 ½ teaspoons all-purpose flour
¾ teaspoon salt-free Cajun seasoning
5 ounces large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 teaspoons unsalted butter
½ teaspoon olive oil
1 teaspoon finely grated garlic
¼ cup unsalted chicken stock
⅛ teaspoon white pepper
1 pinch red pepper flakes
3 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
¼ cup light whipping cream (18%)
salt to taste
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Cook fettuccine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, 7 to 8 minutes. Reserve 1/4 cup of the cooking water and drain the remaining water.
  • Combine flour and Cajun seasoning in a small bowl. Pat shrimp dry and add to the bowl, tossing to coat.
  • Heat butter and olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Place shrimp into the skillet once the butter bubbles and cook for 2 minutes per side. Transfer shrimp to a clean bowl. Add garlic to the same skillet and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Pour chicken broth into the skillet and scrape up any brown bits.
  • Whisk in remaining flour-Cajun seasoning slowly until well incorporated. Season with white pepper and red pepper flakes. Reduce heat to medium-low and slowly whisk in cream; cook for 2 minutes. Add Parmesan cheese slowly, whisking constantly. Cook until sauce has thickened, 2 minutes more. Return shrimp to the skillet and add pasta; toss to combine.
  • Mix in a little of the cooking water if the sauce is too thick, 1 tablespoon at a time. Taste and season with salt, if necessary. Serve sprinkled with parsley.
