Ingredients

• 0.5 Cup (c) butter, divided
• 0.5 Cup (c) olive oil, divided
• 3 Tablespoons (tbsp) garlic, minced
• 1.5 Cups (c) fresh parsley, divided
• 2 Tablespoons (tbsp) fresh lemon juice
• 1 Pinch crushed red pepper
• 1 Pinch salt, to taste
• 1 Pinch pepper, to taste
• 16 Ounces (oz) package bow tie pasta
• 20 Ounces (oz) containers small oysters, drained
• 1.25 Pounds (lbs) shrimp, peeled
• 1 Pound (lb) fresh lump crabmeat

Steps

1. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt 0.5 cups of butter with 0.5 cups of olive oil. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Stir in 1.25 cups of parsley and cook for an additional minute. Add lemon juice, crushed red pepper, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
2. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook the bow tie pasta until al dente, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
3. In a separate saucepan, bring a few cups of water to a boil. Add the oysters, then turn off the heat. Let them stand for 3 minutes, drain, and set aside.
4. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the remaining 0.25 cups of butter with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the shrimp and cook until they turn pink and firm. Add the crabmeat and drained oysters, cooking until the shrimp are opaque and the crab is heated through.
5. Combine the seafood with the drained pasta. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Pour the prepared lemon garlic sauce over the pasta and toss gently to coat.
6. Garnish with the remaining 0.25 cups of parsley before serving. Enjoy your Zesty Lemon Garlic Seafood Pasta with Fresh Herbs!
