Shrimp With Pasta And Sun Dried Tomatoes Recipes

GARLIC SHRIMP PASTA WITH SPICY SUN-DRIED TOMATO CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Note: if using sun-dried tomatoes in oil (in a jar), make sure to drain sun-dried tomatoes from oil, before using them. Reserve 2 tablespoons of this drained oil for sauteing as described below:
• In a large skillet, saute minced garlic and sun-dried tomatoes (drained from oil) in 2 tablespoons of oil (reserved from the sun-dried tomatoes jar - see note above) for 1 minute until garlic is fragrant.
• Add shrimp, sprinkle with a small amount of salt, paprika, and cook on medium heat for about 2 more minutes.
• Add half-and-half, basil, and crushed red pepper to the skillet with shrimp, bring to boil and reduce to simmer. Whisk the Parmesan cheese into the hot cream and stir to melt cheese, on the 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 meantime, cook pasta according to package instructions. Drain (reserving some pasta water).
• Add cooked pasta to the creamy mixture, add more salt, basil, and more crushed red pepper if desired, to taste. If the sauce is too thick, use the reserved pasta water to thin it out.

SHRIMP PASTA WITH SUN-DRIED TOMATOES

• Fill a large pot with water for your pasta. Once the water is boiling, generously season with kosher salt and add the pasta. While the pasta cooks, heat a large skillet over medium and add 2 tablespoons of butter and the olive oil. Season the shrimp with the salt and freshly ground black pepper. Once the butter has melted into the oil, add the shrimp and cook for 2 minutes on each side or until they turn pink and start to become opaque. Transfer the shrimp to a plate.
• To the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter over medium. Add the shallot, garlic, and red pepper flakes, and cook for 1-2 minutes or until fragrant, stirring so the garlic doesn't burn. Add the tomato paste and sun dried tomatoes and continue to stir for 3-4 minutes. Check the pasta which should now be al dente. Use a coffee mug to reserve 1 cup of pasta water then drain the pasta but do not rinse. Add half of the reserved pasta water to the tomato mixture, stirring and scraping up all of the browned bits on the skillet. Stir in the rest of the pasta water until saucy. Add the mascarpone and stir until it has melted into the sauce, then add the cooked shrimp, and tarragon and cook for another or minute or two.
