Categories     Main Course

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 lb shrimp ((Use unfrozen uncooked shrimp. If you have to, you can use unfrozen cooked shrimp - it will work here too))
4 oz sun-dried tomatoes (in olive oil)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon paprika
4 garlic cloves (minced)
1 cup half-and-half (or whole milk)
1 teaspoon dried basil
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 cup Parmesan cheese (, freshly shredded)
8 oz fettuccine pasta ((use gluten free brown rice fettuccine for gluten free version))

Steps:

  • Note: if using sun-dried tomatoes in oil (in a jar), make sure to drain sun-dried tomatoes from oil, before using them. Reserve 2 tablespoons of this drained oil for sauteing as described below:
  • In a large skillet, saute minced garlic and sun-dried tomatoes (drained from oil) in 2 tablespoons of oil (reserved from the sun-dried tomatoes jar - see note above) for 1 minute until garlic is fragrant.
  • Add shrimp, sprinkle with a small amount of salt, paprika, and cook on medium heat for about 2 more minutes.
  • Add half-and-half, basil, and crushed red pepper to the skillet with shrimp, bring to boil and reduce to simmer. Whisk the Parmesan cheese into the hot cream and stir to melt cheese, on the lowest heat setting, until cheese is melted.
  • Remove the sauce from heat. Add more salt, basil, and more crushed red pepper if desired, to taste.
  • In the meantime, cook pasta according to package instructions. Drain (reserving some pasta water).
  • Add cooked pasta to the creamy mixture, add more salt, basil, and more crushed red pepper if desired, to taste. If the sauce is too thick, use the reserved pasta water to thin it out.

SPICY SHRIMP PASTA IN GARLIC TOMATO CREAM SAUCE



Spicy Shrimp Pasta in Garlic Tomato Cream Sauce image

Italian-style pasta with spicy shrimp smothered in a homemade garlic tomato cream sauce. Easy shrimp pasta recipe that you can make at home any time with easy ingredients!

Provided by Julia

Categories     Main Course

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound shrimp (without shells, and deveined)
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 small onion (finely chopped)
4 garlic cloves (minced)
2 cups canned crushed tomatoes
1/4 cup water
1/2 cube chicken bullion ((I used Knorr))
1 tablespoon basil
1/4 teaspoon oregano (dried)
1/2 cup heavy cream
8 oz penne pasta ((for gluten free version, use brown rice penne))

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet on medium-high heat. Add shrimp and cook on one side for about 1 minute, until shrimp turns pink on that side. While it cooks, sprinkle the top of shrimp with crushed red pepper, paprika and salt to cover every single shrimp. Make sure not to crowd the shrimp in the skillet, otherwise moisture will form and shrimp won't sear right. And, don't skimp on spices. Using spatula turn shrimp over to the other side and cook for about 2 more minutes.
  • Remove shrimp to a plate, being careful to leave all the oil in the skillet.
  • To the same skillet, add chopped onion and minced garlic and cook on medium high heat in the olive oil that will have a nice reddish color from paprika and crushed red pepper. Cook for about 2 minutes, occasionally stirring, until onions soften.
  • Add crushed tomatoes and chicken bullion cube dissolved in 1/4 cup boiling water. Add basil and oregano, mix, bring to boil and reduce to simmer. Simmer for about 10-15 minutes, mixing occasionally and crushing all tomatoes into very small bites, until the sauce reduces just a bit. Season with more red pepper and salt, if needed. In the end, while on simmer, add heavy cream, mix it in, and immediately remove from heat.
  • In the mean time, bring a large pot of water to boil and cook pasta al dente according to the package instructions. Drain.
  • Add back the cooked shrimp and cooked and drained pasta to the skillet with the sauce. Mix everything well to combine. Reheat on low simmer, if needed. Do not bring to boil or high heat as it might affect the sauce texture. Add more salt and pepper if necessary.
  • When serving, I like to sprinkle the top of pasta with just a touch of crushed red pepper.

Categories     Creole

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/4 cup kosher salt
1 lb linguine
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 tablespoons creole seasoning
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 cup finely chopped onion
1/4 cup jalapeno, finely chopped
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 cup diced tomato
1/2 cup reserved pasta cooking water
1 cup monterey jack pepper cheese, grated
1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated
2 tablespoons basil leaves, chopped

Steps:

  • Set a large 1-gallon stock pot of water to a boil and add the kosher salt. Place the linguine in the pot and stir the pot until the water returns to a boil. Cook the pasta until tender, but with a bit of resistance (al dente), about 12 minutes. Drain and reserve 1/2 cup pasta water.
  • While the pasta cooks, prepare the sauce. Set a 12-inch saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the butter and olive oil to the pan. Once the butter has melted, season the shrimp with 1 tablespoon of the creole seasoning and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and add the shrimp to the pan. Sear the shrimp until well browned on both sides, about 2 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  • Add the onions and jalapenos to the pan and saute until the onions are softened and lightly caramelized, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic to the pan and saute until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the cream, remaining 1 tablespoon of creole seasoning, remaining 1 1/4 teaspoons of the salt and the pepper to the pan and bring to a boil. Cook the sauce until the cream is reduced by half, about 2 minutes.
  • Return the shrimp to the pan, and add the tomatoes, linguine and the reserved cooking water to the pan and cook, tossing to incorporate for 3 to 5 minutes. Remove pan from the heat and add the Pepper Jack, Parmesan and basil and toss to blend. Serve immediately.
