Seafood Louie Pasta

Seafood Louie Pasta
   

Hey guys! It’s been a while since I’ve uploaded a dinner for two recipe. I’ve been getting a lot of emails and comments, asking me to bring back the series, so here we go!

I’m kicking this series off (again) with my version of Seafood Louie Pasta. This pasta is full of well seasoned jumbo shrimp, and chunks of crab (or imitation crab) meat. As stated in my video, I’m a fan of imitation crab, but if you’re not, use real crab or lobster meat. I used regular rotini pasta for this recipe, but sometime I use tri-color rotini.

You will need a nice grade of jarred Alfredo Sauce for this pasta. Here are some of my favorite brands:

  • Classico
  • Bertolli
  • Francesco Rinaldi
Plump shrimp, tender pasta and veggies fill a white pasta bowl. This seafood Louie Pasta is garnished with fresh lemon wedges.

Again,  I used jumbo shrimps which were about 12-14 a lb. I prefer larger shrimp with this dish. If you want to replace the jumbo shrimp with smaller shrimps, that should be fine!

This meal is quite easy to make, and I think you will enjoy it!
