Ingredients
- 12 ounces Gluten-free pasta
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 8 ounces Medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 8 ounces Scallops
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 6 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 teaspoon Salt

- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
Step 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the gluten-free pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Step 2
In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. Once hot, add the shrimp and scallops. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the seafood is opaque and cooked through. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.
Step 3
In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Step 4
Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir constantly to prevent the cream from burning.
Step 5
Add grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper to the cream sauce. Stir until the cheese is completely melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy.
Step 6
Return the cooked shrimp and scallops to the skillet, along with the drained pasta. Toss everything together gently to coat the pasta and seafood in the creamy garlic sauce.
Step 7
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Step 8
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
Step 9
Serve immediately while hot and enjoy your gluten-free creamy garlic seafood pasta.
