Steps:
- Cook pasta according to package directions, stirring in cherry tomatoes and spinach during the last 5 minutes of cook time. Meanwhile, heat oil in large nonstick skillet and cook shrimp, stirring occasionally, until shrimp turn pink, about 5 minutes. Stir cooked shrimp into hot pasta and sprinkle with cheese.
Tips:
- Use fresh shrimp. Fresh shrimp have a sweeter, more delicate flavor than frozen shrimp. If you're using frozen shrimp, thaw them completely before cooking.
- Cook the shrimp properly. Shrimp should be cooked until they are opaque and pink, but not overcooked. Overcooked shrimp are tough and rubbery.
- Make sure the sauce is thick enough. The sauce should be thick enough to coat the shrimp and pasta without being too runny.
- Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients you use, the better your Creamy Shrimp Alfredo will be.
- Don't be afraid to experiment. There are many different ways to make Creamy Shrimp Alfredo. Feel free to add your own favorite ingredients or adjust the recipe to your liking.
