INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9×9 inch casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray.

- Add the broth and clam juice, stir and bring to a boil.
- Add scallops, shrimp, crab and ¼ teaspoon pepper and bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer uncovered, for 5 minutes or until shrimp is pink and scallops are firm and opaque all the way through. Stir the mixture gently while scallops are cooking. Drain, reserving the liquid. Pour seafood mixture in a medium bowl and set it aside until ready to use.
- In the same large skillet, melt the remaining ½ cup butter; stir in flour and whisk until smooth. Combine 1½ cups half ‘n half and reserved cooking liquid, then gradually and while whisking, add the liquid to the flour mixture in the skillet. Add salt and the remaining ¼ teaspoon black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil and cook, while stirring, for 2 minutes or until thickened.
- Remove flour mixture from the heat and stir in remaining 1 cup half ‘n half, wine, red pepper flakes, and ¼ cup shredded Parmesan cheese creating a white sauce.
- Stir ¾ cup of the white sauce into the seafood mixture.
