Creamy Shrimp Linguine
When it comes to food, I have so many favorites but I also have a favorite favorite… it’s pasta 🍝! I have been having a culinary love affair with pasta ever since I can remember. I just love pasta! It’s so versatile and it can be prepared in many different ways. Proteins and vegetables can be added to it or simply a lovely sauce…
Now, my second favorite favorites are sauces and seafood 🦞. You can just imagine all these favorites combined together; pasta, sauce and seafood… yummy! This is how this Creamy Shrimp Linguine came about a few years ago when I wanted it all and trust me, it delivers!
This pasta is incredibly delicious! The combination of ingredients gives this recipe such an amazing flavor. The creamy sauce has a little zip to it and with the added shrimp 🍤, it makes this dish a real gastronomic delight!
Without being too cocky, I’ve been to restaurants where they were serving similar pasta dishes and honestly, it was too creamy with no flavor. Here’s the thing with heavy cream… it has to be spiced up a little so it doesn’t turn “blah” 🥱. I have to admit that this Creamy Shrimp Linguine is far from being boring! The flavors are just right if I may say…
Another plus to this recipe is that it can be ready within 30 minutes ⏳… no kidding! After your “mise en place” is done and you’re ready to go, one ingredient after another is added and about 20 minutes later, you’re ready to eat. How’s that for an elevated pasta dish? Now, if you want to make it taste even better, make your own pasta. Here’s the link for it… Homemade Pasta
This Creamy Shrimp Linguine is an amazing meal to serve to your family and friends. It takes next to no time to make 👩🍳👨🍳 plus the blend of ingredients is simply perfect together! That is how recipes are created by adding some of your favorites. It’s a symphony of deliciousness on your plate!
