I started making this back in July of 1985 when I transferred from bus boy to prep cook at the Holiday Inn in Michigan City, IN. Maurice was the gentleman from Louisiana who taught me this amazing recipe and cooking style.

Cooking Instructions

45 minutes
  1. 1

    The beauty of this recipe is that it allows one to make made to order seafood fettuccini quickly. I prep and combine the veggies in a freezer bag first. Then I prep each seafood in freezer bags.

  2. 2

    I then make the mornay sauce by heating the butter on a saute pan slowly until the water has boiled off. Now add the flour and whisk briskly until the roux is cooked and slightly nutty. Now increase the heat and add the milk while whisking. One must watch closely and whisk vigorously.

  3. 3

    Now slowly whisk in your cheeses using cream as needed. Finish the sauce with cream

  4. 4

    Now you have everything you need to make seafood fettuccini to order from your ingredients. Since I like everything, I'll make my first batch with everything!!!!!

  5. 5

    Using a large saute pan I heat some butter. I then toss in a bit of each seafood. When that is almost cooked I add the veggie mix. I cook this stuff on high. When the veggies are done, I deglaze with white wine and add the sauce and pasta. I finish each plate with a sprinkling of chiffonade of basil.
