Creamy Shrimp and Mushroom Pasta Recipe from Metabolic Cookbook
Serves 4, prep 5 min,
Cooking time time 30 min
- 4-8 oz fettuccine or linguine
- 10 tbsp butter, divided
- 8 oz fresh, sliced mushrooms
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 3 oz cream cheese, cut into small pieces
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tbsp fresh basil, chopped
- 2/3 cup boiling water
- 1 lb cooked shrimp – you can buy them frozen as well!
To cook your pasta, boil and salt a large pot of water, then add an 8oz box of noodles. Cook your shrimp while the pasta is cook, however if they’re precooked, make sure you thaw them while the noodles are cooking, that way you don’t have to mess with that later.
Then take a large 2tbsp of butter over medium heat and sauté your mushrooms until brown and soft. Season with pepper and whatever else you would like to add. Then take the cooked mushrooms and melt the remaining butter in the skillet. Add some cream cheese, Minced garlic, and herbs. If you see that the cream cheese isn’t melting to well don’t freak out, it’s part of the process, just add some water and it will smooth out.
Simmer cream cheese mixture until well blended. Get a scoop of boiling pasta water from your noodle pot and mix it in, stirring quickly to smooth out the sauce.
Keep sauce hot and add shrimp and mushrooms, mix well and simmer (stirring often) until everything is hot and thickened, about 10 minutes-you won’t ruin this sauce by accidentally boiling it so don’t worry.
Toss sauce with cooked noodles and serve.
