How to Make Crab Delight Fettuccini

  1. Cook 1 pound fettuccine according to package directions. Drain and set aside.

  3. Stir in 1 ½ cups of heavy cream and ½ cup of dry white wine (optional). Bring to a simmer.
  4. Gently fold in 1 ½ pounds of lump crab meat. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
