A deliciously creamy Shrimp Alfredo with crab. A perfect pasta recipe any time of year!
Creamy Shrimp Alfredo With Crab
We are a family who loves a good creamy Shrimp Alfredo. It’s one of the only seafood dishes I can get my husband to actually enjoy eating. I mixed it up, just a bit this time around and added some flaky crab. Turns out, this is the perfect seafood pasta recipe! It was done in less than 30 minutes too. Add a side salad, maybe some garlic bread and you’ve got an awesome family dinner!

My husband would love this! It sounds pretty simple to make, so I might surprise him with this.
Oh my goodness Ronni; I’m drooling here! Seriously! You better have saved me some! It looks amazing!
Yummy, I love alfredo. I usually eat it with chicken, I would have never thought of shrimp – sounds amazing!
That is so easy to make and it sounds delicious. I am going to have to make this.
Oh my gosh this looks so darn good! I would love this meal so very much!
Such a great recipe! It looks easy to make and defintely makes pasta night a bit more fancy!
My husband is a big alfredo fan (I’m not), so I’ll have to try this for a birthday dinner! It looks good, I just prefer red sauce!
That looks and sounds delicious. I find it hard to not like anything with alfredo sauce. haha! And it’s so easy to make. Thanks for sharing your recipe!
I love this! It looks so fancy, but it’s really simple. Great!
Now this is the kind of dinner that I like. Delicious and simple. Win, win!
This looks wonderful! I love all the flavor, and I love the simplicity as well!
This is one of my favorite seafood/pasta combos! I had no idea it was that easy to make. I usually order it at restaurants but might give it a shot at home. Thanks!
That looks so creamy and delicious. You sure know how to treat seafood right.
I love Alfredo!! You dish looks amazing!!
YUM! This looks delicious. I will have to make it for my hubby. He is from Maryland and loves crabs!
Oh my goodness…..this dish looks divine! Will have to make it for a special dinner!
I could go for a huge bowl of this for dinner tonight. We usually make chicken alfredo but I love the idea of making it with shrimp instead.
That sounds like an amazing dish for seafood lovers. So easy to make, too!
We really like alfredo. This recipe is easy and sounds delicious using shrimp.
I love shrimp Alfredo. This looks like a delicious twist on the way I usually make it.
The addition of the clam sauce really gives it a nice extra punch of seafood yumminess. I love this dish.
Shrimp alfredo is one of my favorite dishes. I dont make it often because husband isn’t a huge fan of alfredo and hes just as picky about his shrimp.
My husband would lose his mind! He loves loves loves LOVES pasta with shrimp or other seafood. I’m allergic to shelled fish – so he’s lucky and gets the whole skillet or pot full for himself. I’ll have to send him the link here to your recipe and see if he wants to give it a try! It looks delicious!
I never think about using canned seafood, but it’s been around for so long that people must be really using it. I’ll give it a try.
We love alfredo, but haven’t tried it with shrimp. Thanks for sharing this recipe.
I laughed about the stirring. 2 minutes does seem a long time though, when you’re stirring. 🙂
Two minutes of stirring can seem like an eternity, especially when you’re waiting to eat something so delicious. Two minutes is also a long time when you’re trying to keep an eye on your kids, as well.
That looks amazing! I love that you used clam sauce. So many of these shrimp alfredo recipes are just shrimp thrown into alfredo sauce. The clam sauce really makes this.
Wow, this sounds good! I’ve only recently become a crab fan, and I’m definitely saving this recipe!
You had me at shrimp and crab! This NOLA girl loves her seafood. I will be trying this out soon!
I absolutely LOVE shrimp alfredo! I can’t wait to add crab to it now!

Pasta is my comfort food. I think I may have to try everyone of these. A new one each week through winter!
I love pasta, my daughter loves sea food. Perfect combo! I love the creamy sauce too.
this looks delicious and now I must try the one pot mexican pasta too. My favorite food is seafood so I’ll be wanting this dish until I can come across some good shrimp.

What a great round up. I love crab and shrimp, they go wonderfully with pasta!
I need to make this for my hubby. He loves shrimp and pasta! Perfect for him!
