Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a large pan, add a splash of oil and allow to heat up.
-
Season the seafood with salt and pepper then cook in batches until golden brown.
-
The shrimp should take no more than a minute per side (depending on size) and the calamari and mussels will take only a few minutes to cook. Take care not to overcook the seafood as they will go tough and rubbery. Rather undercook slightly as it will cook a little more while being tossed with the sauce and pasta.
-
Remove the seafood from the pan and set aside.
-
In the same pan, melt the butter and add the garlic and chilli flakes. Cook until fragrant then pour in the lemon juice.
-
Bring to a simmer and allow to reduce by half.
-
Pour in the cream and allow to come to a simmer. Allow to cook for 5 minutes or until the sauce coats the back of a spoon.
-
Add the seafood (and any of its resting juices) and parsley and stir to combine.
-
Toss the sauce with cooked pasta and a splash of the pasta cooking water and toss to coat the pasta. Serve sprinkled with parsley.
