Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Kosher salt
12 ounces fettucine
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
One 12-ounce jar roasted red peppers, drained and sliced in 1/2-inch-thick strips
1 teaspoon sweet or smoked paprika
2 cups heavy cream
1 pound medium peeled and deveined shrimp, tails removed
1 1/2 cups grated Parmesan
1 tablespoon fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to the package instructions for al dente. Drain and set aside.

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt
1 pound frozen peeled and deveined jumbo shrimp (16/20)
2 tablespoons lemon pepper seasoning
1/2 cup white wine
2/3 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup mascarpone cheese
1/4 cup prepared pesto
2 lemons, both zested and 1 sliced, for garnish
Freshly ground black pepper
One 17.5-ounce package gnocchi
2 cups frozen peas
6 to 8 fresh basil leaves

Steps:

  • Place a large skillet with a lid over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil.
  • Lightly rinse the shrimp to help separate them and remove any large pieces of ice. Shake off any excess water, then toss the shrimp with the lemon pepper seasoning.
  • Add the shrimp to the hot oil, using tongs to move into a single layer. Cover and let cook until the shrimp start to defrost and turn pink, about 2 minutes. Uncover, flip the shrimp and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes, flipping for the final minute. Check that the shrimp are pink all over, then remove to a plate.
  • Deglaze the skillet with the wine, scraping the bottom. Add the cream, mascarpone, pesto, lemon zest and good pinch of salt and pepper. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer. Continue simmering for 1 to 2 minutes and allow the sauce to thicken slightly.
  • Add the gnocchi to the boiling water and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. When the gnocchi are ready, they will begin to float.
  • Drain the gnocchi and add to the sauce along with the frozen peas and the shrimp with any juices. Stir and heat through until the sauce has thickened a little more and everything is combined, about 2 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. Garnish with the basil and lemon slices.

Tips for Making Creamy Shrimp Noodle Skillet:

  • Use fresh shrimp: Fresh shrimp have a better flavor and texture than frozen shrimp.
  • Cook the shrimp properly: Shrimp should be cooked until they are pink and opaque. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
  • Use a good quality pasta: A good quality pasta will hold its shape and not become mushy when cooked.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the shrimp and pasta, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the shrimp from cooking evenly and the pasta from sticking together.
  • Use a creamy sauce: The creamy sauce is what makes this dish so delicious. Be sure to use a good quality cream and cheese.
  • Add vegetables: Vegetables add color, flavor, and nutrition to this dish. Feel free to add your favorite vegetables, such as broccoli, zucchini, or mushrooms.
