Kevin's Sea Shells image

A wonderful rich blend of shrimp and pasta. Sea Shells are great for a formal meal or a special meal. Sea Shells look and taste expensive but are really an easy way to impress everyone. Best with wild caught shrimp! Serve with a Cobb salad and a buttered French white loaf.

Time 1h30m

Yield 9

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 ½ pounds large shrimp, peeled and deveined
½ cup sour cream
¾ cup shredded Swiss cheese
36 jumbo pasta shells
¼ cup butter
1 cup sliced mushrooms
½ cup chopped green onions
¼ cup all-purpose flour, sifted
¼ cup white wine
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 cups half-and-half cream
1 cup freshly shredded Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Fill a pot with water, bring to a boil, and reduce heat to a simmer. Cook the shrimp in the simmering water until they turn pink and opaque, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain the shrimp, and cut in half; mix the shrimp, sour cream, and Swiss cheese in a bowl.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x12-inch baking dish.
  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the pasta shells, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 13 minutes. Gently remove the shells with a slotted spoon. Stuff 18 shells with about 1 1/2 tablespoon of the shrimp mixture, place them in the prepared baking dish, then cover each stuffed shell with another shell to enclose the filling.
  • Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir the mushrooms and green onions until the mushrooms give up their juice, about 3 minutes. Stir in the flour, white wine, salt, pepper, and half-and-half cream. Cook, stirring often, until thickened and smooth. Pour the sauce over the stuffed shells. Sprinkle the top with Parmesan cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese has melted and begun to brown and the sauce is bubbling, about 25 minutes.

These sea shells were a bit too salty for my taste, but overall they were still good.

Not a fan of the filling, but the sea shells themselves were crispy and delicious.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my sea shells didn't turn out as crispy as I would have liked. Maybe I'll try baking them for a few minutes longer next time.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me, and the sea shells didn't turn out as expected. I'll stick to simpler recipes in the future.
