SPICY SHRIMP & PENNE PASTA
I created this creamy pasta dish when I needed to use up some marinara. Red pepper flakes give it a little heat, which my family loves. It's super versatile, so try it with chicken, or simply stir in some fresh basil, too. -Lorri Stout, Gaithersburg, Maryland

SPICY SHRIMP AND PASTA
I found the original recipe in an old (1990's) Southern Living Magazine. I changed a few things and tweeked a few things, and came up with this recipe. Hubby and I love it. I serve it hot, right out of the electric skillet with some crispy garlic bread.

SPICY SHRIMP FETTUCCINE ALFREDO
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

SHRIMP PASTA SKILLET
I used to make this skillet dinner with fresh Gulf shrimp just caught that morning in Louisiana, but it's still yummy with frozen shrimp here in Missouri. Pair it with crusty French bread and a glass of wine and you have good eatin'!

Tips:
- Use fresh shrimp. Frozen shrimp can be used, but fresh shrimp will give your pasta a better flavor and texture.
- Cook the shrimp properly. Shrimp should be cooked until they are pink and opaque. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
- Use a good quality pasta. The type of pasta you use will make a big difference in the final dish. Choose a pasta that is made with high-quality ingredients and that has a good texture.
- Don't overcook the pasta. Pasta should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and unappetizing.
- Use a flavorful sauce. The sauce is what really makes this dish special. Choose a sauce that is packed with flavor and that complements the shrimp and pasta.
- Add some vegetables. Vegetables will add color, flavor, and nutrients to your pasta dish. Some good options include broccoli, zucchini, bell peppers, and mushrooms.
- Serve the pasta immediately. Pasta is best served immediately after it is cooked. If you have to wait to serve it, keep it warm in a covered dish.
Conclusion:
Spicy shrimp pasta skillet is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is packed with flavor. It is a great way to use up leftover shrimp, and it is also a great dish for entertaining guests. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and satisfying meal that everyone will love.
