This shrimp linguine recipe is quick and easy to make for a dinner party, a romantic meal, or just a quick family dinner. Already cooked salad shrimp works great! I also occasionally substitute chicken for shrimp for another great flavored dish!

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

  • 1 ½ pounds cooked fresh shrimp

  • 6 tablespoons butter

  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream

  • ½ cup chopped parsley

  • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil

  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme

  • ¾ cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • salt to taste

  • ground black pepper to taste

  • 1 (16 ounce) package linguini pasta

Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook linguine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes.

  2. Meanwhile, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic, and sauté briefly to release flavor. Add cream; heat just to boiling, stirring frequently. Reduce heat to low; stir in shrimp, parsley, basil, and thyme. Continue cooking until shrimp are just heated through; remove sauce from heat.

  3. Drain pasta and toss lightly with cream sauce. Add Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper to taste; toss again and serve.
