Ingredients You’ll Need

Recipe Tips & Variations
- Mix and match shrimp, scallops or crab meat!
- Be sure to use heavy cream, not whipping cream.
- Use freshly grated parmesan cheese! Try a microplane or a food processor to grate the cheese quickly.
- Use fresh garlic (or pre-minced garlic in a jar), not garlic powder.
- Add a pinch of red pepper flakes before stirring the pasta and sauce together, if you want to kick up your Alfredo up a notch!
Storing & Freezing
Storing: Leftovers will keep for about 3 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator, but you may want to add a splash of milk when you reheat.
Freezing: Lobster Alfredo is best served fresh, however you can freeze it in a freezer safe zip top bag, laying flat in the freezer for up to 3 months.

FAQ
Yes! Fresh parmesan can be expensive, so Romano is a perfect substitute. Romano is used often in place of fresh parmesan.
Make a slurry of 1 tablespoon water and 1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed together. Add it to the sauce, stir, and bring to a simmer. The sauce will thicken in a few minutes.
If your sauce is too thick, add a splash of milk or cream to thin it out to your desired consistency. You can also add some cooking pasta water and toss to combine.
Some crusty bread or garlic bread and a green salad with Italian dressing are the perfect compliments to this meal.
