SHRIMP FETTUCCINE ALFREDO



Shrimp Fettuccine Alfredo image

This take on a classic Italian-American recipe is super easy to make. Slightly reducing the cream and adding a hefty dose of cheese means you don't have to use flour to thicken the sauce.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Kosher salt
12 ounces fettuccine
Olive oil, for tossing
3/4 pound large shrimp (about 16), peeled and deveined, tails removed
Freshly ground black pepper
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
2 cups heavy cream
2 pinches freshly grated nutmeg
1 1/2 cups freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and salt generously. Add the pasta, and boil according to package directions until al dente, tender but still slightly firm. Strain, and toss with a splash of oil.
  • Meanwhile, arrange the shrimp in a single layer on a large pie pan or paper plate, and pat them with a paper towel until completely dry. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat, and add 2 tablespoons of the butter. When the butter melts, raise the heat to medium-high, and invert the plate of shrimp over the skillet so the shrimp fall into the pan all at once. Cook the shrimp, without moving them, until the underside is pink, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip the shrimp, and cook until fully pink and cooked through, about 2 minutes more. Transfer the shrimp to a bowl.
  • Reduce the heat to medium, and add the remaining 6 tablespoons butter. Scrape the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon to release any browned bits. When the butter has mostly melted, whisk in the cream and nutmeg and bring to a simmer, then cook for 2 minutes. Lower the heat to keep the sauce warm.
  • Whisk the Parmigiano-Reggiano into the sauce. Add the shrimp and cooked pasta, and toss well. Season with salt and pepper. Serve hot in heated bowls.

Time 40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 slice bacon, diced
3 cups broccoli florets, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
¼ lemon, juiced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup 2% milk
4 tablespoons low-fat whipped cream cheese
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese, divided
½ cup shredded Italian cheese blend
1 (7 ounce) container plain 2% Greek yogurt
¾ pound raw medium shrimp - peeled, tails off, and deveined
1 teaspoon garlic powder, or to taste
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
salt and ground black pepper to taste
6 sprigs fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Place bacon in a large frying pan and cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until mostly but not fully cooked, about 6 minutes. Reduce heat to medium, add broccoli, and saute until bright green and crisp-tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Pour broccoli and bacon into a bowl lined with a paper towel to absorb excess oil; discard paper towel and toss broccoli mixture with lemon juice.
  • Heat olive oil and butter in a deep saucepan over medium heat until bubbling. Whisk in flour to create a roux; continue whisking until mixture turns golden brown, about 3 minutes.

  • Add 3/4 cup Parmesan cheese and Italian cheese; stir until incorporated. Stir in Greek yogurt. Add shrimp and cook until bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, 3 to 4 minutes. Add garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  • Remove from heat and stir in broccoli-bacon mixture. Sprinkle with remaining Parmesan and garnish with parsley.

MMMM EASY SHRIMP IN ALFREDO SAUCE



Mmmm Easy Shrimp in Alfredo Sauce image

This comes together fast after peeling the shrimp - in the time it takes to cook the pasta the meal is ready! It probably could serve 4 if antipasto & dinner salad is served - crusty warm chunks of Italian bread are de riguer to sop up the sauce - you will want ALL of it!

Provided by Busters friend

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 30m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 lb shrimp, NC fresh, 21-26 count
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 garlic cloves, pressed
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup parsley, chopped (flat leaf if available)
3/4 teaspoon black pepper, coarsely ground
3 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup whipping cream
12 ounces evaporated milk
2 ounces cream cheese
1/2 cup parmigiano-reggiano cheese, freshly grated
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, freshly grated

Steps:

  • Put your pot of water on to boil your favorite pasta.
  • Peel & devein shrimp while melting 1 tablespoon butter & 1 tablespoon olive oil over low heat in skillet large enough to hold the shrimp.
  • Press 2 cloves of garlic into butter/oil mixture & gently sauté, low enough heat not to brown garlic.Add cayenne & salt to skillet.
  • Add shrimp & raise heat enough to hear the shrimp sizzle. Sauté 5 minutes stirring often or until the shrimp begin to turn opaque and brighten - but not until they become white and firm yet.
  • Take off heat & mix in the parsley and pepper.
  • Melt the remaining butter in a 1 quart saucepan. Add the cream & evaporated milk. Reduce the mixture by 1/3 over medium heat, stirring constantly (I use a smaller sized whisk for this). It will boil & that is OK - just keep stirring!
  • Add the cream cheese in 3 or 4 chunks & stir until melted.
  • Add the nutmeg & the Parmigiano, stirring well.
  • Pour thickened sauce over shrimp in skillet & simmer a few minutes on low heat while you drain your pasta. Use some of the sauce to dress the pasta, then serve with additional sauce & plenty of shrimp.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. Fresh shrimp, good quality butter, and freshly grated Parmesan cheese will make a big difference in the flavor of your sauce.
  • Don't overcook the shrimp. Shrimp cooks very quickly, so be careful not to overcook it or it will become tough and rubbery.
  • Add the shrimp to the sauce at the very end of cooking. This will help to prevent the shrimp from overcooking.
  • Serve the sauce immediately over your favorite pasta. Alfredo sauce is best when it is served fresh.

Alfredo sauce is a classic Italian sauce that is perfect for any occasion. It is rich, creamy, and flavorful, and it is sure to please everyone at your table. This recipe for Alfredo sauce with shrimp is a delicious and easy way to enjoy this classic sauce. The shrimp adds a nice protein boost to the sauce, and it cooks in just a few minutes.
