Provided by ladydee009

Number Of Ingredients 22

ESSENCE CREOLE SEASONING:
3/4 pound cooked fettuccine
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound peeled, deveined raw large shrimp
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons Essence seasoning (recipe below)
1 1/2 hot links, or smoked turkey sausages, sliced and quartered
1/2 cup diced green pepper
1/2 cup diced yellow onion
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1/2 cup chicken stock
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
2 1/2 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon dried thyme

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium high heat in a large saute pan. Season the shrimp with 2 teaspoons of the Essence. Place the shrimp in the pan and saute until almost done. Don't overcook, as they'll continue to cook when you add them to the sauce. Remove the shrimp from the pan and set aside. Place the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in the saute pan and onions and bell peppers. Saute, stirring occasionally, until the onions are translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the sausage and cook another minute. Add the garlic to the pan and saute for 30 seconds. Add the chicken stock to the pan and scrape with a spoon to remove any browned bits that have formed in the bottom of the pan, about 30 seconds. Add the thyme, 1 tablespoon of Essence and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook for 2 minutes. Add the heavy cream to the pan and cook an additional 2 minutes. Return the shrimp to the pan and pasta to the pan. Continue to cook the sauce and pasta, stirring occasionally, for about 3-5 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the basil and Parmesan. To make the Essence Seasoning, just mix all of the ingredients and store in an airtight container.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the pasta will be.
  • Don't overcook the pasta. Cook it according to the package directions, or until it is al dente, or slightly firm to the bite.
  • Use a large pot to cook the pasta. This will help to prevent the pasta from sticking together.
  • Add salt to the pasta water. This will help to flavor the pasta and prevent it from becoming bland.
  • Don't rinse the pasta after cooking. This will remove the starch from the pasta, which will make it less flavorful.
  • Use a flavorful sauce. The sauce is what will really make the pasta dish shine. Be sure to use a sauce that is packed with flavor.
  • Add some protein to the pasta. This could be anything from chicken to shrimp to vegetables. Protein will help to make the pasta dish more filling and satisfying.
  • Garnish the pasta dish with fresh herbs. This will add a pop of color and flavor to the dish.

Conclusion:

Creole pasta with sausage and shrimp is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick weeknight meal.
