Creamy Shrimp Pasta

I like this recipe with shrimp the most, the sauce is moderately dense, flavorful and very suitable with pasta or rice. For those who fast, you can replace heavy cream with coconut milk, it will be just as delicious.

Ingredients

Shrimp(peeled and deveined)
500 g
fresh or frozen
Pasta
500 g
Heavy cream (32% fat)
200 ml
White onion
0.5 pieces
Garlic cloves
3 pieces
Extravirgin olive oil
2 tbsp
Butter
20 g
All-Purpose Flour
1 tbsp
Fresh parsley
1 bunch
Salt and pepper
1 tsp
to taste

Step by step

Step 1

Let the frozen shrimp thaw - they will leave the excess water and cook faster in the pan. If you do not have time for thawing, I would recommend putting them in boiling salted water for 2 minutes and then letting them drain the excess water in a sieve.

With the fresh ones everything is simple, clean and they are good to cook.
