How to Make Al Lewis Spinach Fettuccine With Crab Sauce

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add 1 pound fettuccine and cook for 3-6 minutes, or until al dente. Drain, reserving about ½ cup pasta water.
2. While the pasta cooks, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
3. Add 2 finely chopped shallots and cook for 1-2 minutes, until softened.
4. Stir in 10 ounces fresh spinach and cook until wilted (about 2 minutes).
5. Add 1 (10.75 ounce) can lump crab meat, drained, ½ cup heavy cream, ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until heated through and sauce has thickened slightly. Add reserved pasta water if sauce is too thick.
6. Add the cooked fettuccine to the skillet and toss to coat with the sauce.
7. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley and extra Parmesan cheese.
