A quick and easy dinner idea with a ton of flavor. Juicy shrimp is simmered in garlic mushroom butter sauce and tossed with fettuccine. This dish is ready in just 15 minutes!
Cook pasta according to instructions on the box. Drain and keep warm.
8 oz. dry fettuccine pasta
In a large skillet, heat up olive oil and butter. Add shrimp to skillet, season with salt and pepper and cook over medium heat, 2 to 3 minutes per side, until the shrimp are pink. Remove shrimp onto a plate and set aside.
15 oz. medium or jumbo shrimp, ¼ teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
Add 3 tablespoons of butter to skillet and melt. Add garlic and onion and saute until fragrant and onion is almost translucent about 2 to 3 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook until soft.
½ cup chopped white onion, 3 to 4 garlic cloves, 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, 7 baby bella mushrooms
Add chicken stock and bring mixture to simmer. Add shrimp back to skillet and simmer one minute.
½ cup chicken or vegetable stock
Add the last tablespoons of butter to dish, stir in until melted. Remove skillet from heat.
Season dish with salt and pepper. Toss in cooked noodles. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve.
½ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Notes
I used medium shrimp, already peeled and deveined. Use any pasta you like for this dish. I like fettuccine but linguine, spaghetti, penne, bowtie, etc will work too.
