Ingredients
Sun-dried Tomato Alfredo Sauce
- 16 oz Heavy Cream
- 1/2 cup Butter (1 stick)
- 2 tsp Minced Garlic
- 1/4 cup Minced Sun-dried Tomato
- 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1 1/2 tsp Italian Seasonings
- 2 cups Fresh Grated Parmesan Cheese
- Pepper + Salt to Taste
- Fettuccine
Protein
- 1 Rack of Lamb (9 chops)
- 2 cups raw shrimp (peeled & deveined)
- Your favorite Jerk Marinade
- The marinade I’m using has a ton of flavor so I don’t need any additional spices, but feel free to season to your taste
- Dried parsley for garnish
Instructions
- If working with a full rack make sure to slice into individual chops and marinate with your favorite jerk marinade for atleast 3 hours. Place in the refrigerator.
- Once you are ready to cook pull out your chops and allow them to become room temperature before grilling.
- To make sauce add butter and minced garlic to a sauce pan. Saute until garlic becomes fragrant.
- Add heavy cream, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic powder, Italian seasonings, pepper, and salt to taste. Give everything a good stir and make sure mix well.
- Add fresh parmesan cheese and stir until completely melted and mixed in. Once your sauce has thickened turn off the heat and toss with fettuccine.
- Prepare your pasta according to package directions.
- Brush your shrimp with jerk marinade and allow to sit for 15-30 minutes before grilling.
- You can grill or sear your lamb chops its your choice. I chose to grill 3 minutes on each side over direct heat for medium. Or you can use a meat thermometer rare at 120°F, medium rare at 125°F, medium at 130°F, and well done at 145°F and higher. I wouldn’t suggest well done
- Grill shrimp until they are fully cooked and remove from heat.
- Plate by adding tossed pasta to the center of your bowl or plate in a mound. Add lamb chops and shrimp around the borders of the mound.
- Enjoy!
