Ingredients

• ¼ cup butter
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
• ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 teaspoons ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon minced garlic
• 1 pound uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 2 tablespoons Italian bread crumbs
• 1 (12 ounce) package pork sausage links, sliced
• 1 (4 ounce) jar sliced mushrooms, drained
• 2 tablespoons Creole seasoning (such as Tony Chachere's®)
• 1 (15 ounce) jar Alfredo sauce (such as Bertolli®)
• 1 (16 ounce) box fettuccine noodles

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Heat butter and olive oil in a large skillet pan over medium-high heat. Add sausage, frozen vegetables, and mushrooms. Saute until sausage is almost fully cooked, onions are tender, and any liquid from the frozen vegetables has almost fully evaporated, 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in Creole seasoning, garlic, and pepper; cook for 2 minutes. Add shrimp, Alfredo sauce, and Parmesan cheese. Cook and stir until sauce has thickened and shrimp are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, about 5 minutes.

Step 2

Meanwhile, fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Cook fettuccine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain fettuccine, top with shrimp-sausage mixture, and sprinkle with bread crumbs and parsley.
