Garlicky Shrimp & Lobster Pasta

Garlicky Shrimp & Lobster Pasta
Came up with this one a few summers ago when I wanted to impress a newly acquired "beau". He loved it, I hated him ....I dumped him but kept the recipe. Creamy & cheesy, this one isn't low in calories but it is pretty quick. Basically an Alfredo recipe but really garlic-ed up. I've also made this w/crayfish once & it was just as good.

Yields: 20 servings
Cuisine: American, Mexican
Number of ingredients: 8
Ingredients:
  • 1 pound extra large shrimp, peeled with tails left on and deveined
  • 1 lime plus a few extra wedges for serving
  • Salt and fresh ground black pepper
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic, about 6 cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander, optional
  • 2 scallions, chopped
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves and tender stems, chopped

How to cook:
  1. Pat the shrimp dry then season with 1/4 teaspoon of salt and fresh ground black pepper.
  2. Use a microplane to zest the lime and set aside. Cut the zested lime in half ready for the sauce later in the recipe.
  3. Add one tablespoon of the butter to a wide skillet. Save the remaining two tablespoons for later.
  4. Place the skillet with butter over medium heat then add the garlic and coriander. Stir the garlic around the pan until the butter melts and is bubbling; about 1 minute.
  5. Add the shrimp, nestling them into the pan so that they are in one layer. A few shrimp stacked on top of each other is okay. Cook until the shrimp start to turn pink, about 1 minute.
  6. Stir in the scallions and lime zest. Continue to cook, stirring, until the shrimp are firm and opaque throughout; another 1 to 2 minutes. Slide the skillet off of the heat.
  7. With the skillet off of the heat, add the cilantro, juice from the lime and the remaining two tablespoons of butter. Stir the butter around the pan so that it melts into the lime juice making the creamy butter sauce.
  8. Taste then season as needed with salt and pepper. Serve with extra lime wedges on the side.
Notes: Lemon Garlic Butter Shrimp (Super Fast!), Heat olive oil in a medium cast iron skillet over medium heat, until shimmering. Keep the garlic herb butter nearby. Add the shrimp in a single layer. …
