This recipe is a staple in our home. We make it at least once a month & it's always better leftover the next day!
- One package of angel hair pasta
- 1 tablespoon of cajun seasoning (we like Louisiana Fish Fry Products)
- 1 teaspoon cayenne
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon oregano
- 1 tablespoon freshly minced garlic (don't use the stuff in the jar)
- 1/4 cup butter
- 3 cups heavy cream
- 1 pound of mixed frozen seafood (we like mussels, shrimp, calamari & scallops)
Cook pasta according to package directions.
In a large pan, melt butter. Add garlic, cayenne, cajun, pepper, & seafood. If you are using frozen seafood you'll notice that your butter mixture will become watery. This is good, since we don't use a thick sauce in this recipe we rely on that water.
Once the seafood is cooked add the heavy cream, mix well and saute for 2 more minutes. Add the pasta and toss well.
Garnish with oregano & serve.
Serves: 8 +

You are up early, too. It sounds good. Tell me if it is more than 2 star hot... as Rick's tummy could not take it. But I think I could reduce the cayenne.

I know, right?! I love the quiet of the early morning.
ReplyDeleteIt is about 2 stars, the cajun seasoning is just salt, spices, red pepper, garlic and paprika... not too spicy, but to be safe it may be a good idea to reduce the cayenne to half a teaspoon.
