How to Make Creamy Shrimp Pasta Primavera

1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain.

2. Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onions and cook until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in mushrooms and bell pepper; cook until bell pepper has softened and mushrooms are lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Add shrimp, white wine, and oregano. Cook until shrimp are almost cooked through and turning pink, 3 to 5 minutes.

3. Add cream and butter. Simmer, stirring constantly, for 8 minutes. Add cooked spaghetti, mix to combine, and turn off heat. If cream sauce is too thin, thicken with flour. Season with salt and pepper and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and basil.

Creamy Shrimp Pasta Primavera Reviews

• This was really delicious I didnt add any ingredients, but used more of some than written. I used half a small onion, a whole bell pepper, the whole small pack of sliced mushrooms, 8 ounces of cream, and about 12 ounces of spaghetti. I didnt have any wine. This will be a regular recipe around here for sure

• Yes, I added different vegetables(zuchinni,yellow squash, red, yellow, orange, and green peppers). I added a can of fire roasted tomatoes, used pre-cooked shrimp and it came out very delicious

• We really loved this. Id probably give it 5 stars, except that it was quite a small portion of sauce.

• Yummy Didnt change a thing

• Delicious I didnt add the cream or wine so it wasnt as rich as it would have been. Im going to try the same recipe using chicken.
