SHRIMP FETTUCCINE ALFREDO



Shrimp Fettuccine Alfredo image

This take on a classic Italian-American recipe is super easy to make. Slightly reducing the cream and adding a hefty dose of cheese means you don't have to use flour to thicken the sauce.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Kosher salt
12 ounces fettuccine
Olive oil, for tossing
3/4 pound large shrimp (about 16), peeled and deveined, tails removed
Freshly ground black pepper
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
2 cups heavy cream
2 pinches freshly grated nutmeg
1 1/2 cups freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and salt generously. Add the pasta, and boil according to package directions until al dente, tender but still slightly firm. Strain, and toss with a splash of oil.
  • Meanwhile, arrange the shrimp in a single layer on a large pie pan or paper plate, and pat them with a paper towel until completely dry. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat, and add 2 tablespoons of the butter. When the butter melts, raise the heat to medium-high, and invert the plate of shrimp over the skillet so the shrimp fall into the pan all at once. Cook the shrimp, without moving them, until the underside is pink, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip the shrimp, and cook until fully pink and cooked through, about 2 minutes more. Transfer the shrimp to a bowl.
  • Reduce the heat to medium, and add the remaining 6 tablespoons butter. Scrape the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon to release any browned bits. When the butter has mostly melted, whisk in the cream and nutmeg and bring to a simmer, then cook for 2 minutes. Lower the heat to keep the sauce warm.
  • Whisk the Parmigiano-Reggiano into the sauce. Add the shrimp and cooked pasta, and toss well. Season with salt and pepper. Serve hot in heated bowls.

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 pound medium shrimp (U41-50), shelled and deveined
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 pound spaghetti
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 cup frozen peas, defrosted
1/3 cup grated Parmesan
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Bring a big pot of water to a boil. Salt liberally.
  • In a large bowl, toss the shrimp with 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and the baking soda and marinate in the fridge for 15 minutes (this keeps the shrimp moist with a nice crust on the outside).
  • Add the pasta to the pot of boiling water and cook according to the package instructions. Drain, reserving about 1 cup of the pasta cooking water.
  • Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add the oil to the skillet, then arrange the shrimp in a single layer in the oil. Reduce the heat to medium. Cook, undisturbed, until a nice crust is formed, about 2 minutes. Flip the shrimp, then add the butter and garlic. Cook gently until fragrant, about 1 more minute. Add the wine to deglaze and let simmer for 1 more minute. Add the peas and pasta. Toss to combine. Taste for seasoning and adjust with salt and pepper. Add a generous amount of Parmesan and toss again, adding the pasta water as necessary.
  • Transfer the pasta to a large serving bowl. Garnish with more Parmesan and the parsley. Serve.

SHRIMP FETTUCCINE



Shrimp Fettuccine image

A derivative of Alfredo, I was playing hit an miss with a variation and hit. My wife and I aren't huge pasta fans, but loved this one. Fairly simple with things you may already have around the kitchen. The quantities given were just about right for a modest meal for 2 with some noodles left over. Adjust as necessary. Additionally, adjust ingredients' ratios (skim milk vice whole milk for example) to your taste or dietary needs.

Categories     European

Time 30m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups whole milk
1/2 lb raw shrimp
2/3 cup grated cheddar cheese
4 fresh garlic cloves (finely minced or smashed)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon onion powder
2 chicken bouillon cubes
2 tablespoons cornstarch (or about 4 tbs. flour)
16 ounces fettuccine (one medium sized box)
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Warm the milk on low heat in a medium-sized saucepan. Once warm, add the garlic, salt, onion powder, and bouillon cubes, and continue to heat on low heat, stirring occasionally.
  • Peel and de-vein the shrimp.
  • Fill pasta pot with enough water to boil the fettucini and heat on high (eventually to a boil). Add the olive oil to the pasta pot. At the same time, raise the heat on the milk mixture to medium, add the cheese, and gradually stir in the corn starch. Try to avoid clumping. Adjust heat as necessary to gently bring the sauce to a boil. The goal is for both to finish at about the same time. Use additional corn starch if necessary to adjust thickness of sauce. Ensure you allow it to boil momentarily between addtions to allow it to congeal sufficiently.
  • Add the shrimp to the sauce and allow the sauce to gently boil for approximately 7 or 8 minutes with the shrimp in it.
  • When the pasta pot is at a boil, add the fettucini, ensuring all of it is submerged, and continue to boil it to completion. Bear in mind that fettucini cooks much faster than spaghetti, so avoid overcooking. I generally remove it as soon as possible after it loses the rubbery texture (assuming you started with dried fettucini as opposed to fresh made).
  • Strain, but do not rinse the fettucini and divide onto dinner plates in suitable portions. Pour the shrimp/sauce mixture onto the pasta portions, being careful to equally divide the shrimp!, and serve.

I make this spicy shrimp pasta a lot because it's a something my family never seems to get tired of. The sauce is so fast to make I can get it done while the fettuccine is cooking.

FETTUCCINE WITH SHRIMP



Fettuccine With Shrimp image

Provided by Pierre Franey

Categories     dinner, weekday, pastas, main course

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/4 pounds medium-size shrimp
3 small zucchini, about 3/4 pound
3 quarts water
Salt to taste
3/4 pound fettuccine
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
2 cups cubed ripe plum tomatoes
1/4 teaspoon hot red pepper flakes
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh basil leaves
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan or peccorino cheese, optional
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Peel and devein the shrimp.
  • Trim the ends of the zucchini and slice them thin, about 1/8 inch thick.
  • Bring the water and salt to a boil in a saucepan. Add the pasta and return to a boil. Cook, stirring, for 8 to 9 minutes, or according to package instructions. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup cooking liquid.
  • Meanwhile, heat the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add the shrimp and garlic and cook briefly, stirring. Do not allow the garlic to brown. Add the zucchini, tomatoes, pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, over high heat for about 3 minutes.
  • Return the pasta to the cooking kettle. Add the shrimp mixture, reserved cooking liquid, basil, cheese, if desired, and butter. Toss well over medium high heat and serve very hot after checking the seasoning.

Tips:

  • Use fresh shrimp: Fresh shrimp have a sweeter, more delicate flavor than frozen shrimp. If you can, buy shrimp that has been caught within the last 24 hours.
  • Cook the shrimp properly: Shrimp should be cooked until they are pink and opaque. Overcooked shrimp are tough and rubbery.
  • Use a good quality pasta: Fettuccine is a wide, flat noodle that is perfect for holding the shrimp and sauce. Look for a pasta that is made with high-quality ingredients.
  • Make a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what makes this dish so special. Use a combination of butter, garlic, white wine, and cream to create a rich and flavorful sauce.
  • Add some vegetables: Vegetables add color, flavor, and nutrition to this dish. Try adding some chopped broccoli, asparagus, or mushrooms.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as parsley, basil, or chives, add a pop of color and flavor to this dish.

Conclusion:

Shrimp fettuccine is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy sauce, tender shrimp, and al dente pasta, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
