Yields: 2 servings
Prep time: 15 minute.
Cook time: 20-25 minutes
Ingredients:
* 2 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each), skin on or off
* 6-8 large shrimp, peeled and deveined
* 1 tbsp olive oil
* Salt and black pepper to taste
* 1/2 lb spaghetti or fettuccine pasta
* 1 tbsp butter
* 2 cloves garlic, minced
* 1 cup heavy cream
* 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving
* 1/4 cup reserved pasta water
* Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
* Optional: a pinch of red pepper flakes for the sauce
Instructions:
* Cook Pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente. Before draining, reserve about 1/2 cup of the pasta water. Drain the pasta and set aside.
* Prepare Seafood: Pat salmon and shrimp dry with paper towels. Season both sides of the salmon and shrimp with salt and pepper.
* Cook Salmon & Shrimp: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add salmon, skin-side down if applicable, and cook for 4-6 minutes per side, or until cooked to your desired doneness. Remove salmon from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until pink and opaque. Remove shrimp and set aside.
* Make Cream Sauce: Reduce heat to medium-low. Add butter to the skillet and melt. Add minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. If the sauce is too thick, add a little of the reserved pasta water until it reaches your desired consistency. Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste, and red pepper flakes if using.
* Combine & Serve: Add the drained pasta to the skillet with the cream sauce and toss to coat evenly. Divide the pasta between two plates. Top each serving with a salmon fillet and some shrimp. Drizzle a spoonful of the cream sauce over the salmon. Garnish generously with fresh chopped parsley. Serve immediately.
