You know what they say, life happens. Well, today it did. There was no shrimp curry made in the OSK. There was Shrimp Alfredo.
Shrimp Alfredo with Mushrooms
1 lb. shrimp, tail-off, cooked
1 package spaghetti, cooked
1 8 oz. can of mushrooms
1 T. EVOO
1 sm. onion
2 cloves garlic
3 wedges Laughing Cow cheese
1 c. milk or cream
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
S&P to taste
Directions
Heat the EVOO on medium, put the onion and whole garlic cloves and sauté until translucent. Add in the mushrooms and continue to cook. Add in the milk and let it begin to warm. Once it is too warm to touch add in the Laughing Cow cheese and melt it into the milk. Add the parmesan cheese and whisk until smooth. The parm will thicken the sauce. Season with S&P to taste. Add in the cooked shrimp until they get warm, and then toss in the spaghetti to coat. If you want a thinner sauce just add a bit of the pasta water into the sauce. Serve hot. Garnish with parsley.
This is incredibly easy. It’s so easy I forgot to take pictures of the cooking process. It comes together in approximately 10 – 15 minutes. That’s about as long as it takes to cook your pasta.
I’ve mastered simple and quick. Really. No joke. Simple and quick. Well, you’ll see soon enough.
