While fish is a healthy addition to any diet, there can be plenty of calories hidden in any cream- based dressings. To make this dish lighter, we’ve substituted a combination of chicken broth, 2% milk, and flour for heavy cream. That way, you’re still able to achieve that thick, creamy texture that’s indicative of an Alfredo dish while cutting out the unhealthier elements.

Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the penne pasta and salt and cook until al dente. Drain and return the pasta to the pot.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  3. Add the chicken broth, milk, and flour to the onion and whisk until completely combined. Cook until the mixture thickens slightly.
  4. Stir in the cooked pasta, crabmeat, and shrimp and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes, or until the seafood is heated through.
  5. Remove from the heat and stir in the Parmesan cheese.
  6. Season with salt and pepper, if needed. Garnish with the parsley and scallion. Serve immediately.
