Directions
- Cook the pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook fettuccine according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- Prepare the steak: Rub 1 tbsp of Cajun seasoning evenly over the steak. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and sear steak 3–4 minutes per side (for medium-rare) or until desired doneness. Remove from skillet, let rest 5 minutes, then slice thinly.
- Cook the shrimp: Toss shrimp with remaining 1 tbsp Cajun seasoning. In the same skillet, sear shrimp 2–3 minutes per side until pink and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
- Make the Alfredo sauce: In the skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté 30 seconds until fragrant. Pour in heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in Parmesan and mozzarella until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper.
- Combine pasta and sauce: Add cooked fettuccine to the skillet and toss to coat evenly with the Alfredo sauce.
- Assemble the dish: Plate the pasta, then top with sliced steak and cooked shrimp. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
- Serve immediately: Enjoy with garlic bread or a fresh green salad for a complete meal.
