Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Penne

    Cook the penne pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Sugo Rosa

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and crushed red pepper flakes, sautéing until fragrant (about 1 minute). Stir in the pomodoro sauce and heavy cream, simmer for 5-7 minutes until slightly thickened.

  3. 3

    Cook the Shrimp

    In a separate skillet, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the shrimp with salt and black pepper. Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are pink and opaque.

  4. 4

    Combine Everything

    Add the cooked penne to the sugo rosa sauce, stirring until well combined. Gently fold in the cooked shrimp.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Plate the shrimp and penne mixture. Top with slices of buffalo mozzarella and serve immediately.
