Instructions

  1. Heat half the amount of butter in a pan. Sweat the shallot and garlic in it, deglaze with white wine. Pour in the fish stock and cream and reduce, then mix with a hand blender. Season to taste with salt, pepper and lime juice.
  2. In the meantime, cook the fettuccine al dente according to the instructions on the packet.
  3. Melt the remaining butter in a pan. Add the mussels and a sprig of thyme, season lightly and fry on each string for approx. 40 seconds.
  4. Drain the pasta, toss in the sauce and arrange on the plates. Top with the scallops. Grind the pepper over it and serve decorated with a sprig of thyme each.
  5. Tip: Decorate with lobster sauce (if you have one at hand, but it doesn`t have to be).

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
