Calories: 535kcal
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 lb shrimp
- Salt & pepper to taste
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup parmesan cheese
- 1/2 lb angel hair pasta
- 1/2 lb asparagus ends trimmed and chopped
- 2 plum tomatoes diced
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley chopped
Instructions
- Heat a large pot of boiling water over high heat. Cook pasta for 3 minutes, adding asparagus after 1 minute. Drain both and set aside.
- Meanwhile, heat butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook shrimp, seasoning with salt and pepper, for 1 minute per side until no longer translucent. Remove shrimp (leaving as much butter in the pan as possible) then add garlic, sauteeing for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add in wine, cooking for 1-2 minutes until reduced by half. Pour in chicken broth, heavy cream and parmesan cheese, stirring until thickened. Add shrimp back to pan, along with cooked pasta and asparagus.
- Add tomatoes, then toss to combine and remove from heat. Serve garnished with parsley if desired then enjoy!
Notes
Use a dry white wine like a sauvignon blanc or chardonnay.
If you don't want to use wine, swap it out for chicken stock.
Add in any other vegetables of your choice like bell peppers, broccoli florets, zucchini and more!
Store the leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a pan on the stovetop.
