  • Be careful not to overcook the shrimp, or they will become tough and rubbery.
  • For a spicier dish, use more cayenne pepper or hot sauce.
  • If you don't have any buffalo sauce on hand, you can make your own by mixing together hot sauce, butter, and Worcestershire sauce.
  • Serve the buffalo shrimp pasta immediately, garnished with chopped green onions and crumbled blue cheese.
