This recipe outlines how to cook a creamy seafood pasta with a white wine butter sauce.
spaghetti or fettucine
butter
heavy cream
garlic
oregano
white wine (Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc recommended)
lemon/lemon juice (optional)
red pepper flakes (optional)
seafood, choose from:
mussels
squid
shrimp
clams
lobster
Prepare your pasta, if you don’t know how I recommend to follow these instructions. I choose to make mine al dente because it will continue to cook slightly once we add the sauce.
Defrost/Deshell your seafood of choice
Chop a half tablespoon of garlic into small pieces
In a large pan on medium heat, saute your chopped garlic in salt and butter for a minute or so.
Add and saute the seafood. Season with oregano, red pepper flakes and salt
Add a half cup heavy cream and a third cup of white wine to the pan. Cook until you have the consistency you want.
Drain your pasta (Which should be cooked by now) and pour contents of the pan into the pasta.
