Method

Cooking Pasta

  1. 1

    Boil the Pasta

    In a large pot of boiling salted water, add linguine pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Preparing the Sauce

  1. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add sliced mushrooms and cook until they are browned, about 5 minutes.

  2. 3

    Add Spinach and Tomatoes

    Stir in fresh spinach and halved cherry tomatoes. Cook until spinach is wilted, about 2-3 minutes.

  3. 4

    Deglaze with White Wine

    Pour in the white wine and let it simmer for 3-4 minutes, allowing the alcohol to cook off.

  4. 5

    Make the Cream Sauce

    Reduce the heat to low and add heavy cream and grated Parmesan cheese. Stir until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth. Season with salt and black pepper.

Combining Ingredients

  1. 6

    Add Seafood

    Gently fold in the jumbo lump crab meat and shrimp into the sauce, cooking for an additional 5 minutes until the shrimp are pink and cooked through.

  2. 7

    Combine with Pasta

    Add the cooked linguine to the skillet, tossing to coat the pasta in the creamy seafood sauce. Heat through for 2-3 minutes.

Serving

  1. 8

    Serve Hot

    Serve the crab and shrimp pasta immediately with slices of garlic bread on the side.
