Method
 

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine or linguine and cook until al dente, following the package instructions. Drain the pasta and set it aside.
  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, until fragrant.
  3. Add the lobster and crab meat, and cook for 2-3 minutes until they are warmed through. Remove the seafood from the skillet and set it aside.
  4. In the same skillet, add the heavy cream and let it simmer gently. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce slightly thickens.
  5. Add the cooked pasta, flaked salmon, and the sautéed lobster and crab meat into the skillet. Toss everything in the Alfredo sauce, ensuring the pasta and seafood are well coated.
  6. Divide the Cajun Seafood Alfredo among plates. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges.

Notes

To enhance the flavor, consider adding a splash of white wine to the Alfredo sauce while it simmers. For an extra touch of luxury, finish the dish with a drizzle of truffle oil. Store any leftover Cajun Seafood Alfredo in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop with a little cream or milk for a smooth texture.
