Instructions
- Take the ribeye steaks out of the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the ribeye steaks and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until your desired doneness is reached. Remove from the skillet and let rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing.
- While the steaks are cooking, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- In the same skillet used for the steaks, melt butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook until they turn pink, about 2-3 minutes. Stir in the lobster meat and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
- Pour in the heavy cream and sprinkle in the Cajun seasoning. Stir well to combine, then bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
- Gradually stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. If the sauce is too thick, you can add a little pasta water to reach your desired consistency.
- Add the cooked fettuccine to the skillet and toss to coat the pasta evenly with the creamy Cajun sauce. Cook for an additional minute to heat through.
- Slice the ribeye steaks against the grain. Serve the creamy Cajun shrimp and lobster fettuccine in bowls, topped with sliced ribeye and a sprinkle of fresh parsley. Serve with lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.
Notes
For a spicier version, increase the amount of Cajun seasoning. You can also substitute the lobster with crab meat if preferred.
