1# penne pasta.
1 whole bunch of chopped garlic (not crushed) 2-3 T of olive oil. 1 T Butter. (The kind churned by French virgins is the best if you can find it. Good luck with that.)

Directions: |
Directions:Saute garlic in 2-3 T of olive oil and the 1TBS Butter. Don't brown just make it translucent and flavor the oil.
Add: 1/2 cup chicken stock. It should taste salty but don't worry it will tone done when you mix it on the pasta. 1/2 cup white wine 1 1/2 T pesto 1 Tbs dried Basile 8 oz mushrooms
Simmer for a few minutes to cook the mushrooms down.
Taste and correct at this point. This is the basic sauce without the shrimp.
The shrimp goes in last since you don't want them over cooked.
Add shrimp and stir in your sauce and cook the shrimp. Not too hot but enough to get the shrimp done and flavor the sauce.
Thicken a little before serving with some cornstarch with wine or water. This helps it stick to the pasta. Just don't over thicken! Stir into pasta and serve. Charge yourself 28 euro a piece. |
