Shrimp and Tomato Pasta

Ingredients

Preparation

For this recipe, we use unshelled shrimp because it brings more flavor to the dish but if you prefer, you can do it also with shelled shrimp
Before we start cooking, sprinkle about 1 tbsp of Yummy Seafood Seasoning and a dash of Yummy Blackening Seasoning. The combination of both, really brings out the full New Orleans flavors.

You will need to chop the veggies:

Start with the pasta and add the bay leaf to the hot water. We will cook the shrimp sauce in no time.

Preparation – Shrimp sauce

In a hot pan, add about 1 ½ tbsp of butter.
Place in the onion, garlic, and bell pepper, stir constantly. Cook for a minute or two. Be careful not to burn the butter.
Next, the stars of the show. Place the shrimp and cook each side for about 3-4 minutes. We don’t want to overcook them as they will finish cooking once we incorporate the tomatoes. Set aside the contents of the pan.
In the same pan, add the tomato, 1 tbsp of sour cream or heavy cream and 1 tsp of Yummy Blackening Seasoning . Stir constantly for about 4-5 minutes until the first bubbles appears.
Now let’s marry the shrimp. Add the shrimp, onion, garlic, bell pepper previously cooked and stir with the tomato sauce for 1 minute to blend in the flavors.
Turn off the stove and add some fresh basil for garnish.

Serving.

With the cooked pasta of your choosing, add the shrimp & tomato sauce.
A side of French bread will come in handy as this will have everyone wanting to lick their plates.
This and all Yummy recipes are best enjoyed when shared with friends and family.
