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.

SHRIMP WITH SUN-DRIED TOMATOES



Shrimp With Sun-Dried Tomatoes image

Sun-dried tomatoes might scream 1980s nouveau cuisine to you, and that's a fair assessment considering their somewhat profligate use throughout the decade. Yet this dish may have you reconsidering their place in your pantry. Used sparingly, sun-dried tomatoes can impart a bold tomato-y taste that Mark Bittman argues is in some ways "better than 'real' tomato flavor." In this 20-minute sauté, the intense tang of capers and tomatoes plays beautifully off the mild sweetness of shrimp. Serve it over pasta or rice, or alone with a big hunk of good bread.

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     seafood, appetizer, main course

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
Several sprigs thyme
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 cup sun-dried tomatoes, roughly chopped
2 tablespoons capers, drained if necessary
1/2 cup fish stock or dry white wine
16 to 24 large shrimp, peeled
Salt and pepper
Chopped fresh basil

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler; rack should be 2 to 4 inches from heat source and the heat as high as possible.
  • Put oil in a large, ovenproof skillet over medium heat and add thyme, garlic, tomatoes and capers. Cook just until mixture sizzles, then add stock or wine; raise heat and bring to a boil. Cook for about a minute, then add shrimp, turning them in sauce.
  • Put skillet under broiler and cook until shrimp are done, 3 to 5 minutes, turning once. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, garnish with basil, and serve hot or warm.

Provided by Heidi

Categories     Main Course

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 14

12 ounces long fusilli (, or other long noodle of choice)
4 tablespoons butter (, divided)
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 pound shrimp (, peeled, cleaned, and deveined (leave the tails on if you like))
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (, plus more for salting the pasta water)
freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons shallot (, minced)
2 large cloves garlic (, minced or pressed)
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/4 cup tomato paste
1/2 cup sun dried tomatoes in oil (, drained and chopped (a 6-ounce jar))
1 cup mascarpone (, (an 8-ounce container))
1 cup reserved pasta water
1/2 cup fresh tarragon (, roughly chopped, plus more for serving (you could also use fresh basil if you prefer))

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with water for your pasta. Once the water is boiling, generously season with kosher salt and add the pasta. While the pasta cooks, heat a large skillet over medium and add 2 tablespoons of butter and the olive oil. Season the shrimp with the salt and freshly ground black pepper. Once the butter has melted into the oil, add the shrimp and cook for 2 minutes on each side or until they turn pink and start to become opaque. Transfer the shrimp to a plate.
  • To the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter over medium. Add the shallot, garlic, and red pepper flakes, and cook for 1-2 minutes or until fragrant, stirring so the garlic doesn't burn. Add the tomato paste and sun dried tomatoes and continue to stir for 3-4 minutes. Check the pasta which should now be al dente. Use a coffee mug to reserve 1 cup of pasta water then drain the pasta but do not rinse. Add half of the reserved pasta water to the tomato mixture, stirring and scraping up all of the browned bits on the skillet. Stir in the rest of the pasta water until saucy. Add the mascarpone and stir until it has melted into the sauce, then add the cooked shrimp, and tarragon and cook for another or minute or two. Add the pasta to the skillet, toss everything together, and taste for seasoning, adding more salt if desired. To serve, top with more tarragon and a kiss.

SHRIMP W SPINACH & SUN-DRIED TOMATOES



Shrimp W Spinach & Sun-Dried Tomatoes image

This has become a favorite for a quick, easy and elegant meal. You can use any style pasta you prefer. The smaller the shrimp the less the cooking time will be. Keep that in mind when adding spinach as the shrimp will continue to cook as the spinach steams. If I have small shrimp I add the shrimp and spinach at the same time so the shrimp doesn't overcook.

GARLIC SUN-DRIED TOMATO PASTA



Garlic Sun-Dried Tomato Pasta image

I love garlic so when I wanted a change from tomato sauce on my pasta, I threw a few ingredients in my frying pan and came up with this. Cut down on the garlic if it's too much for you. Add hot pepper flakes if you like spice. Cook vegetable of your choice with pasta if you want. Every time I make this, it's different. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
