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. In the past, I have added red peppers and spinach, but who's to say you could not add mushrooms or more or less spice. -Stephanie Beluk, Sharpsburg, Georgia

  • Choose the Right Shrimp: For the best flavor and texture, use large, fresh shrimp. If you're using frozen shrimp, thaw them properly before cooking.

  • Use Good Quality Fettuccine: The pasta is an important part of this dish, so don't skimp on quality. Look for a high-quality fettuccine made with durum wheat.
  • Make the Sauce Creamy and Flavorful: The sauce is what brings this dish together. Use a good quality white wine and heavy cream, and don't be afraid to add lots of spices and herbs.
  • Garnish Before Serving: A few simple garnishes can make a big difference in the presentation of your dish. Try sprinkling some chopped parsley or grated Parmesan cheese on top.
