Shrimp in Creamy Garlic Sauce-Video

Good morning Foodies! It's Thursday, Tax day is over (woot!) and it is an absolutely beautiful day in Chicago! We have had some gross weather here for the last week or so. Lots of rain, chilly temperatures and that bone-chilling wind we are so well known for. But today, spring has seemingly sprung again :)
Last night I was over at a friend's place and we whipped up some shrimp in a creamy garlic sauce. The recipe was really easy, and the finished product was one of the best shrimp & pasta dishes I have had. Enjoy the video & happy eating!


Ingredients
  • 4 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 8 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup dry white wine
  • 1/3 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 lb large cooked, peeled & deveined shrimp
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 16 oz. fresh linguine, cooked and drained
Directions
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Pour in cream and wine, and bring to a simmer. Cook until cream begins to thicken (approximately 10 minutes). Stir in parsley, Parmesan, shrimp, and season with salt & pepper. Heat just until the shrimp are warmed through, 1 - 2 minutes. Pour sauce & shrimp over linguine in a large bowl and toss to coat.

Garlicy Grilled Shrimp

When it comes to preparing seafood, almost anything can be prepared in this manor. Throw it in a pan with some olive oil, garlic & peppers, cook it up and you are good to go. Gotta love something that is so easy, and sooo tasty.

Ingredients
  • 1 9-oz. pkg. refrigerated spinach fettuccine
  • 4 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
  • 3 small red, green, yellow, or orange sweet peppers, seeded and cut in strips
  • 2 medium onions, cut in thin wedges
  • 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
  • 1 lb. peeled and deveined medium shrimp
  • 1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper
Directions
Cook pasta according to package directions; drain and return to pan. Toss with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Keep warm. Meanwhile, in skillet heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high heat. Stir in peppers, onions, and garlic; stir-fry 4 to 6 minutes or until crisp-tender. Add shrimp and cayenne pepper. Cook 2 to 3 minutes more or until shrimp are opaque, stirring occasionally. Serve over pasta.
