How to make Pesto Shrimp Fettuccine in Mushroom Garlic Sauce
Step 1: In a large skillet, heat 1 tbsp olive oil over medium heat. In a mixing bowl, place the shrimp and rub in the seasoning mixture until coated well. Once the oil is hot, add the shrimp to the pan and cook on each side for about 2 to 3 minutes, turning once midway, until the shrimp are cooked through and pink. Set the cooked shrimp aside when done.
Step 2: In the same skillet, add the second tbsp of olive oil. Add the sliced mushrooms and 1/4 tsp salt once the oil is hot. Cook for about a minute or two, stirring until the mushrooms release liquid, reduce in volume, and softened.
Step 3: In the last few minutes, add the minced garlic. Then, pour in the wine and continue to cook for another 1 to 2 minutes before returning the shrimps to the skillet.
Step 4: Stir in the pesto and lastly, pour in the stock. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes more until reduced.
Step 5: Meanwhile, cook the pasta following the package directions in a large pot of boiling water. Drain when done, but do not rinse the pasta.
Step 6: To the skillet, add the pasta and toss until completely coated. Let everything warm up for 2 minutes.
Step 7: Remove from the heat when done and serve right away. If desired, season with extra salt and more red pepper flakes. Enjoy!
