Ingredients
  

  • Seafood Mix 250g: A combination of shrimp, scallops, and mussels (fresh or frozen)
  • Mushrooms 200g: Shiitake, cremini, or button mushrooms
  • Garlic 3 cloves: Minced
  • Olive Oil 2 tbsp
  • Butter 2 tbsp
  • Lemon 1: Freshly squeezed juice
  • White Wine 1/2 cup: Dry white wine (e.g., Sauvignon Blanc)
  • Heavy Cream 1/2 cup
  •  
  • Fresh Parsley for garnish: Chopped

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Mince the garlic and slice the mushrooms. If you're using frozen seafood, thaw and pat it dry to avoid excess moisture.
  2. Sauté the Garlic and Mushrooms: Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the mushrooms and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown.
  3. Add the Seafood: Add the seafood mix to the pan. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally. The shrimp should turn pink, and the scallops should have a golden crust.
  4. Deglaze with Wine: Pour in the white wine and stir to combine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Let it simmer for about 2 minutes to reduce slightly.
  5. Add Cream and Butter: Lower the heat and stir in the heavy cream and butter. Let the mixture simmer for 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens and becomes creamy.
  6.  
  7. Finish with Lemon Juice and Parsley: Squeeze in fresh lemon juice, stir, and garnish with chopped parsley. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, use lobster or crab instead of seafood mix.
  • Substitute heavy cream with Greek yogurt for a lighter version.
 
  • If you like a bit of heat, add red pepper flakes when sautéing the garlic.
