CHICKEN AND SHRIMP CARBONARA
My wife and I went to that popular Italian-American restaurant chain for dinner recently, and I had their shrimp and chicken carbonara. It was absolutely delicious and I thought, 'What the heck, I'll try making this at home.' I found a few recipes online, but none grabbed me. After studying several recipes, I came up with this recipe on my own. It's fairly simple to make, and my wife said it was better than the original.

OLIVE GARDEN CHICKEN AND SHRIMP CARBONARA
Olive Garden's new entree, Chicken & Shrimp Carbonara, was inspired by the chef's recent trip to Rome. A staple in Italian cuisine, Carbonara traces its roots to a hearty meal popularized by charcoal workers in Italian villages. Olive Garden's Carbonara combines chicken and shrimp with bucatini pasta in a pancetta and parmesan cream sauce. Baked and topped with seasoned breadcrumbs, the entrée takes an exciting twist on a classic dish. To learn more about the new menu item, visit www.olivegardennewfavorites.com.

COPYCAT OLIVE GARDEN CHICKEN AND SHRIMP CARBONARA
This is an Olive Garden copycat recipe. This is also a redo of a previous posting. I reworked the ingredients and amounts to be a little more manageable (the original had way too much cream and milk for the sauce and was designed for too many people).

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh shrimp, flavorful bacon, and creamy heavy cream will make all the difference in your shrimp carbonara.
- Cook the shrimp properly: Shrimp should be cooked until they are opaque and pink, but not rubbery. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and chewy.
- Don't overcook the pasta: Pasta should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and bland.
- Reserve some of the pasta cooking water: This water is starchy and will help to create a creamy sauce.
- Add the cheese and eggs slowly: Gradually whisk the cheese and eggs into the pasta, stirring constantly. This will help to prevent the eggs from scrambling.
- Serve immediately: Shrimp carbonara is best served immediately, while the pasta is still hot and creamy.
Conclusion:
Shrimp carbonara is a delicious and easy-to-make pasta dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a restaurant-quality dish that your family and friends will love.
