We found this recipe on www.allrecipes.com and gave it a try. It’s a really tasty sauce, almost like an Alfredo but much spicier. The shrimp and sea scallops came out perfect! We served it with garlic bread and sliced pineapple tonight. (A bit of an odd combo but the pineapple needed to be eaten).

Ingredients:

• 1/2 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 1/2 pound scallops
• 2 c. heavy whipping cream
• 1 tbsp. fresh basil, chopped
• 1 tbsp. fresh thyme, chopped
• 2 tsp. salt
• 2 tsp. ground fresh black pepper
• 1 tsp. ground white pepper
• 1 1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
• 1 c. green onions, chopped
• 1 c. parsley, chopped
• 1/2 c. swiss cheese, shredded
• 1/2 c. Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 lb. dry fettuccine pasta

Directions:

1. Start by preparing all of your herbs, salt, peppers, onions, and parsley and putting them in a bowl, combined.
2. Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente (about 11 minutes).
3. Meanwhile, pour cream into large skillet. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until just about boiling.
4. Reduce heat, and add herbs and spices mixed in step 1; simmer 7-8 minutes, or until thickened.
5. Stir in seafood, cooking until shrimp is no longer transparent. Stir in cheeses, blending well.
6. Drain pasta. Serve sauce over noodles.
