Pasta

Shrimp and Bruschetta

Alfredo Sauce

Garnish

Soup/Salad and Garlic Homeloaf

Method

Preparing Pasta

  1. 1

    Cook the Fettuccine

    In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the fettuccine pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving a cup of pasta water.

Cooking Shrimp and Bruschetta

  1. 2

    Sauté the Shrimp

    In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the shrimp, season with salt and pepper, and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until they turn pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

  2. 3

    Prepare the Bruschetta

    In the same skillet, add the diced Roma tomatoes and chopped fresh basil. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until tomatoes soften slightly. Return the shrimp to the skillet and mix everything together.

Making Alfredo Sauce

  1. 4

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a saucepan over medium heat, melt 4 tablespoons of butter. Once melted, add the heavy cream, garlic powder, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, and 0.25 teaspoon of black pepper. Bring to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 3-4 minutes.

  2. 5

    Add Parmesan Cheese

    Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and continue to simmer until it thickens slightly, about 2-3 minutes. If the sauce is too thick, add reserved pasta water a little at a time until desired consistency is reached.

Combining Everything

  1. 6

    Combine Fettuccine and Sauce

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked fettuccine, shrimp, bruschetta mix, and Alfredo sauce. Toss gently to coat the pasta evenly with the sauce.

  2. 7

    Garnish and Serve

    Sprinkle with chopped green onions and serve immediately with your choice of soup or salad and garlic homeloaf on the side.
