Garlic-Butter Seafood Pasta

Sometimes I’m in the mood for seafood, but I don’t really want to spend a lot of money on a fancy dinner. So, I created this simple dish to satisfy my craving!

Servings: 4

  • 8-16 oz cooked frozen shrimp, thawed
  • 7-14 oz crab-flavored seafood, fully cooked
  • 1/2 stick butter
  • 3 cloves minced garlic
  • 1/2 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 box thin spaghetti

First, get a pot of water going for the pasta.  Remove the tails from the shrimp while you’re waiting for the water to boil.

Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat.  Add in the lemon juice.  After you’ve minced the garlic, throw it in the skillet and let it simmer for just a few minutes.  Smell that fresh garlic…mmm.

Toss in the shrimp and fish, and cook until the shrimp is firm.  Finish cooking the spaghetti according to package directions.

When it’s done, pile the seafood on the pasta, making sure to drizzle some extra butter over the top.  It’s simple, and full of flavor!

    Gosh I want some of that – if only Nate liked lemon *sigh* Do you think I could leave the lemon juice out? Or is it even that lemony with that little bit in there. Because if its just a little he may not mind…
