  • 4 x salmon fillets - (6 ounce ea)
  • 1 Tbsp. butter - (to 2)
  • 1/2 lb shrimp - (36/40 count)
  • 1 jar commercial Alfredo sauce, preferably with roasted garlic - (16 ounce) (or possibly 1 3/4 c. homemade sauce)
  • 1/4 c. grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 c. diced green and red bell peppers
  • 1/4 c. diced green onions (green and white parts)
  • 4 tsp Cajun spice

Directions

  1. Prepare a warm grill and grill salmon till just done, about 10 min.
  2. Meanwhile, in a medium saute/fry pan, heat the butter over medium-high heat. Add in shrimp and cook just till it turns pink, 1 to 2 min. Remove shrimp and reserve.
  3. In the same pan, combine the Alfredo sauce, Parmesan, peppers, green onions and Cajun spice. Heat thoroughly, stirring till well-combined. Place half the sauce on the serving plates, top with salmon and shrimp and cover with remaining sauce.
  4. This recipe yields 4 servings.
  5. Comments: At American Cafe, half the sauce for each plate is spread on the plate. The grilled salmon is arranged crosswise at one end and topped with sauteed shrimp and remaining sauce. Spicy rice, a steamed vegetable and half a lemon complete the plate. In adapting the recipe for home cooks, we reduced the size of the salmon fillets from the 10 ounces served at the restaurant.
