Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Sauté Shrimp and Krab

    In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the shrimp and cook for 3-4 minutes until they turn pink. Then, add the krab meat and stir gently to combine. Cook for another 2 minutes, then remove from heat and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Parmesan Cream Sauce

    In the same skillet, pour in the heavy cream and bring it to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat. Gradually whisk in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Combine and Serve

    Return the sautéed shrimp and krab mixture to the skillet with the Parmesan cream sauce. Stir to coat the seafood evenly with the sauce. Allow it to heat through for 2-3 minutes. Serve hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley.
