ingredients
8 ounces uncooked fettuccine pasta
2 teaspoons olive or vegetable oil
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 small red bell pepper, chopped
2 teaspoons flour
1 1/2 cup fat-free evaporated milk
1 pound imitation crabmeat, cut up
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
grated Parmesan cheese for topping, if desired
directions
Cook and drain fettuccine as directed on package.
While fettuccine is cooking, heat oil in 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Cook garlic and bell pepper in oil about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until bell pepper is crisp-tender. Stir in flour.
Gradually stir in milk. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer uncovered until mixture thickens.
Stir crabmeat, Parmesan cheese, the salt, pepper and nutmeg into bell pepper mixture; heat through. Place fettuccine in serving bowl. Pour crab sauce over fettuccine; toss well. Sprinkle with additional Parmesan cheese if desired.

Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

Great recipe and works with other types of pasta.However I do use full-fat evaporated milk as I avoid fat-free and reduced-fat diary.

this uses imitation crab but i wld. use canned, also evaporated milk makes it easy sounds like a keeper for the trailer
