A rich and creamy seafood pasta dish featuring shrimp and crab, perfect for a comforting meal.
Cook the fettuccine in a large pot of salted boiling water until al dente, then drain.
Reserve a cup of pasta water to adjust the sauce consistency later if needed.
In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat and sauté the garlic until fragrant.
Be careful not to burn the garlic as it can turn bitter.
Add the heavy cream to the saucepan and stir, reducing the heat to low.
Stir continuously to prevent the cream from scorching.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
Add the cheese gradually to ensure it melts evenly.
Combine the cooked fettuccine with the sauce, tossing to coat evenly.
Use tongs to mix the pasta and sauce thoroughly.
Gently fold in the shrimp and crab meat, allowing them to warm through.
Ensure the seafood is evenly distributed throughout the pasta.
Serve the pasta garnished with fresh parsley.
Chop the parsley finely for a more even distribution.
