This is my version of low fat seafood alfredo sauce. It is really pretty easy. I have also used chicken. Every one that tastes it loves it.
1lb Shrimp
1lb Scallops or Crabmeat

Parsley for garnish
1 box Fettuccini
Cook Fettuccine according to package.
Over Medium heat , melt butter and add garlic to saute. When the garlic is soft, add the fat free Half and Half. Stir constantly for 5 Minutes until cream thickens. If it does get very thick use flour and water to thicken a little. Add shrimp , scallops or crab meat, salt, pepper. Stir to reduce heat to low. let cook 10 minutes then add parmesan cheese slowly using a whisk. Continue cooking another 5-10 minutes. Serve over noodles , Garnish with parsley and parmesan cheese.
