Instructions
- Boil a large, salted pot of water for the pasta. Cook 8 ounces uncooked pasta according to package instructions.
- Add 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil to a skillet over medium-high heat. Add 8 ounces cremini mushrooms sliced and cook for 5-6 minutes or until the mushrooms release their water and it's cooked off. Take the mushrooms out of the pan and set them aside.
- Take the pan off the heat. Add 3 cloves garlic minced, ½ teaspoon Dijon mustard, 2 teaspoons all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons lemon juice, 2 dashes Italian seasoning, and ⅓ cup chicken broth or stock to the pan. Return the pan to the heat. Stir until the mixture is nice and smooth, and let it bubble for a minute or so.
- Add in 1 cup heavy cream and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.
- Add ¾ pound medium shrimp and cooked mushrooms to the pan. Cook for 5 minutes or until the shrimp are cooked through and the sauce is thickened to your liking. Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.
- Drain the pasta and toss it with the sauce (add a little pasta water if you wish to thin the sauce). Serve with grated parmesan cheese if desired.
Notes
- Anything from 3/4 lb. to 1 lb. of shrimp will work fine.
- I used fettuccine pasta - any shape will work for this recipe.
