Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Cook the fettuccine pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and chopped onion, sautéing until fragrant and translucent.

  3. Add the sliced bell peppers to the skillet and cook until slightly softened, about 3-4 minutes.

  4. Stir in the cherry tomatoes and asparagus, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

  5. Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Let the mixture simmer for 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

  6. Gently fold in the cooked and shelled Alaskan snow crab meat, being careful not to break it apart too much. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the crab is heated through.

  7. Add the cooked fettuccine pasta to the skillet, tossing everything together to coat the pasta evenly with the creamy sauce.

  8. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the pasta, stirring gently to incorporate.

  9. Season with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting as needed.

  10. Serve the Alaskan Snow Crab Pasta Primavera hot, garnished with fresh chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
