Spicy Shrimp And Smoked Sausage Pasta Recipes

CAJUN SHRIMP & SAUSAGE PASTA RECIPE - (4.1/5)

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium high heat in a large saute pan. Season the shrimp with 2 teaspoons of the Essence. Place the shrimp in the pan and saute until almost done. Don't overcook, as they'll continue to cook when you add them to the sauce. Remove the shrimp from the pan and set aside. Place the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in the saute pan and onions and bell peppers. Saute, stirring occasionally, until the onions are translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the sausage and cook another minute. Add the garlic to the pan and saute for 30 seconds. Add the chicken stock to the pan and scrape with a spoon to remove any browned bits that have formed in the bottom of the pan, about 30 seconds. Add the thyme, 1 tablespoon of Essence and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook for 2 minutes. Add the heavy cream to the pan and cook an additional 2 minutes. Return the shrimp to the pan and pasta to the pan. Continue to cook the sauce and pasta, stirring occasionally, for about 3-5 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the basil and Parmesan. To make the Essence Seasoning, just mix all of the ingredients and store in an airtight container.

SPICY SHRIMP AND SMOKED SAUSAGE PASTA

Steps:

• Cook Tortellini in boiling water just until they start to float. Rinse with cold water. Toss pasta with the teaspoon of olive oil to avoid sticking.
• Try to use either andouille or Emeril's kicked up smoked sausage. You want a spicy sausage for this dish.
• Melt the butter in a sauce pan. Saute smoked sausage, onion, celery, bell peppers, and garlic. Let cook on Med-high for 3-4 minutes. Add shrimp and let cook another 2 minutes, or until shrimp looks mostly pink.
• Add wine, cream, creole seasoning, herbs, hot sauce and fresh black pepper. Turn temp down to Med and let reduce for 3-4 minutes.
• Pour sauce over the pasta and toss in the Parmesan cheese.
• Serve imediately with french bread and butter. Goes great with a nice salad. I recommend a nice crisp chardonnay wine to go with it.
• Sometimes I even add catfish nuggets to this dish. I saute them with the shrimp and sausage. It's pretty good that way too.
