Share:
Ingredients
- 4 oz (125g) Fettuccine pasta
- 3/4 lb (340g) Shrimp peeled, deveined and tails removed, raw
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 1/4 cups chicken broth low-sodium
- 1/2 cup whipping cream
- 1/2 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
Instructions
- Cook the pasta according to the package instructions. Sprinkle the shrimp with salt and black pepper, and toss to combine. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of flour over the shrimp and toss to coat. Repeat with another tablespoon of flour, tossing to coat the shrimp evenly.
- Melt butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add the shrimp in a single layer and cook on each side, flipping once, until golden brown, approximately 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the shrimp to a plate.
- Pour in the chicken broth and cook for about 5 minutes, whisking the bottom of the pan to deglaze. Reduce the heat to medium and pour in the cream, whisking constantly. Cook the sauce over medium heat until bubbly and the cream begins to thicken, about 5 minutes. Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning with more salt, black pepper, and Cajun seasoning as needed.
