Equipment

  • Large pot
  • Large skillet

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb linguine noodles or spaghetti or fettucine
  • 4 Tablespoons butter divided
  • 1/2 lb uncooked shrimp peeled and deveined
  • 1/2 lb scallops patted dry
  • 1/2 lb mussels cleaned and beards removed
  • 1/2 lb clams
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 shallot diced
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 3/4 cup dry white wine
  • 1 1/4 cups heavy cream half and half or milk
  • 1 teaspoon chicken bouillon paste
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese divided
  • lemon zest from ½ of a lemon
  • 1/4 cup fresh chopped parsley plus more for garnish

Instructions
 

  • In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain noodles but reserve 1 cup of the pasta water.
  • Meanwhile, season shrimp and scallops with a pinch of salt and pepper. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shrimp and scallops and cook for about 2 minutes per side (until shrimp is pink and both are opaque), then transfer to a plate. Cover with foil to keep warm.
  • Add remaining 3 tablespoons butter to skillet. Add shallots and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add wine and bring to a simmer, cooking for a few minutes.
  • Add clams and mussels then cover with a lid and cook for 4-5 minutes, until shells open. Remove mussels and clams to the plate with the other seafood (discard any shells that didn't open).
  • Stir 1 teaspoon cornstarch into the cream. Add cream mixture, bouillon, and ¾ cup of the parmesan to the pan and cook until sauce has slightly thickened. Taste and season with salt and pepper, if needed.
  • Add pasta and lemon zest and toss to coat. Add seafood. Garnish with parsley and remaining parmesan. Enjoy.
