Pasta Preparation
1. Cook the Pasta
In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add elbow macaroni and cook according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Seafood Preparation
2. Cook the Seafood
In a large skillet over medium heat, add a little bit of oil. Sauté the shrimp and scallops until cooked through, about 3-4 minutes. Add lump crab meat and sauté for an additional minute. Remove from heat and set aside.
Cheese Sauce Preparation
3. Make the Cheese Sauce
In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to form a roux. Gradually whisk in the milk, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens.
4. Add the Cheeses
Reduce heat to low and stir in the sharp cheddar cheese, cream cheese, and Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Add garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Transfer the mac and cheese mixture to a greased baking dish.
