Directions: |
Directions:Heat 1 TBS of olive oil over medium high heat in a large sauté pan. Season the shrimp with 2 tsp of the essence seasoning. Place the shrimp in the pan and sauté until almost done. Remove the shrimp from the pan and set aside.
Place the remaining Tbsp of olive oil in the sauté pan and onions and bell peppers. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until the onions are translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the sausage and cook another minute. Add the garlic to the pan and sauté for 30 seconds. Add the chicken stock to the pan and scrape with a spoon to remove any browned bits that have formed in the bottom of the pan, about 30 seconds. Add the thyme, 1 TBS of essence and ½ tsp salt and cook for 2 minutes. Add the heavy cream to the pan and cook an additional 2 minutes.
Return the shrimp and pasta to the pan. Continue to cook the sauce and pasta, stirring occasionally, for about 3-5 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the basil and parmesan. |
