Garlic Shrimp Pasta

I’ve made this recipe at least 3 or 4 times in the last few weeks, using a little of what I had on hand the first time and then improving it until I got the perfect recipe (in my opinion). And since then, I’ve been unstoppable. When I don’t know what to eat, I always end up thinking about the taste of this tasty dish and how much I want it 😉 .

The ideal way to achieve this is to have good fresh shrimps; however, if you can’t find any, buy frozen peeled or semi peeled shrimps, they will make a little more water when cooked, but the dish remains delicious.

Serving: 4 people

Ingredients

• 500 grams of spaghetti
• 300 grams of peeled or semi peeled shrimp tails
• 1/2 glass of white wine
• 3 cloves of garlic
• 1 onion
• 3 tablespoons of olive oil
• 250 grams of liquid cream
• 200 grams of tomato sauce
• 1 scoop of mozzarella
• 3 nice handles of spinach leaves
• Salt and pepper
• Some basil leaves to decorate the plate

Preparation:

1. In a frying pan or a frying pan, fry 2 cloves of garlic finely sliced with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. After a few minutes, add the raw shrimp—brown them over high heat (especially if they are frozen). Once the shrimp are cooked, place the pan’s contents (shrimp and garlic) on a plate and set aside for the end of the recipe.
2. Without washing the pan (we will keep all the cooking juices), fry the minced onion in 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once the onion is blanched, deglaze by pouring in the white wine. Let a good part of the white wine evaporate before adding the cream and tomato sauce. Simmer for a few minutes, and then add the coarsely chopped mozzarella. Stir gently until the mozzarella is well melted.
3. Then cook the pasta in salted water. A few minutes before the end of the cooking time, add the spinach and garlic shrimps you have reserved on a plate to the sauce you have prepared beforehand. Serve the sauce over the hot pasta, decorating it with a few fresh basil leaves.
