Cooking with Sundried Tomato
Garlic Shrimp and Sun Dried Tomatoes with Pasta in a Spicy Creamy Sauce
I got this from Pinterest and LOVED it, however I've added a few changes in the recipe, so its mine now.
Add shrimp, sprinkle salt (pinch or two), paprika, and cook on medium heat for about 2 minutes.

6 to 30 small shrimps; cut into halves with shells on
4 oz sun-dried tomatoes in olive oil (half the 8 oz if that
is all you can find)
1 tsp salt (pasta and for the desired amount ( just to give
you an idea)
1/4 teaspoon paprika
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 or 3/4 cup whole milk (half and half or other milk options) - I used less bc I used less shrimp (6 count- diced)
1 teaspoon dried basil
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper ( ½ packet that the pizza man
delivers)
1 cup Parmesan cheese, freshly grated (ask your local
grocery store to cut a chunk for you)
8 oz fettuccine pasta (organic or from your local farmers
market is great) – Support Locals
Drain the
sun dried tomatoes in the jar, but set aside 2 tablespoons for reserve later in
the recipe. (DO NOT FORGET)
In a large
skillet, sauté; minced garlic, halved small tomatoes, and sun-dried tomatoes
(halved) in 2 tablespoons of oil (above) for about 1 min on medium heat, don’t
let the garlic burn. You want the garlic to come through in smell.
Add shrimp, sprinkle salt (pinch or two), paprika, and cook on medium heat for about 2 minutes.
Add milk, basil, and crushed red pepper to the
skillet with shrimp, bring to boil and reduce to simmer.
Add the Parmesan cheese into the hot cream and stir to melt cheese, on lowest heat
setting, until cheese is melted. Remove the sauce from heat.
*Add more
salt, basil and more crushed red pepper if desired, to taste.
In the mean time, cook pasta according to package
instructions. Drain and you will add to the pan right away.
Add cooked pasta to the
creamy mixture, more salt, basil and more crushed red pepper if
desired
