Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz fettuccine pasta
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 4 oz cooked lobster meat, chopped
- 4 oz crab meat
- 4 oz salmon fillet, skin removed and cut into chunks
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped parsley for garnish
Feel free to substitute the seafood with what you have on hand or prefer. If you can’t find fresh lobster or crab, quality frozen seafood can work wonders too. The key is to keep things simple and stress-free, just like those evenings spent in the kitchen with my dad.
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the fettuccine according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the onion until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the garlic and Cajun seasoning, stirring constantly until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.
- Add the lobster, crab, and salmon pieces to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the seafood is heated.
- Toss in the cooked fettuccine, mixing until the pasta is well-coated with the sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
This is where the magic happens—when all the flavors meld together, just like old family recipes that have been passed down through generations. Remember, cooking is about enjoying the process, not just the end result.
