Cajun Shrimp And Steak Alfredo


Normally I post recipes on Wednesday.  However, I am half way through my cardio re-hab and after going for exercise Wednesday mornings, I come home and tend to go to sleep.  So for the next 4 weeks Friday will be recipe day.

Today's recipe was posted on Facebook and comes from Evelyn Recipes.  I have always been a fan of both steak and pasta so this recipe is right up my alley.


Ingredients:

  • 200g shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 200g steak, thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp Cajun seasoning
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 300g fettuccine pasta
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped


Directions:

  • Cook fettuccine pasta according to package instructions; drain and set aside.
  • Season shrimp and steak with Cajun seasoning.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; cook steak slices until browned, then remove.
  • Add shrimp to the same skillet and cook until pink; remove and set aside.
  • Melt butter in the skillet, then sauté garlic until fragrant.
  • Pour in heavy cream, simmer for 2-3 minutes, then stir in Parmesan cheese until smooth.
  • Return shrimp and steak to the skillet; toss with cooked fettuccine.
  • Season with salt, pepper, and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.


Adjust the Cajun seasoning for more or less heat to your liking.
