Tagliatelle with shrimp sauce is a refined and tasty dish. Here’s how to prepare them.

Ingredients

  • 400 g egg tagliatelle
  • 300 g peeled shrimp
  • 1 clove of garlic
  • 200 ml cooking cream
  • 1 glass of dry white wine
  • Fresh chopped parsley

Preparation

  1. Start by preparing the shrimp: clean them by removing the shell and intestinal vein, then rinse under cold running water and pat dry.
  2. In a large skillet, heat a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and the crushed garlic until golden, then remove it.
  3. Add the shrimp to the skillet and let them brown for a couple of minutes, then deglaze with the white wine and let it evaporate.
  4. Pour the cream into the skillet, adjust salt and pepper, and let the sauce cook over low heat for about 5-10 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
  5. Meanwhile, bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the egg tagliatelle al dente.
  6. Drain the pasta and transfer it to the skillet with the shrimp sauce, mixing well to combine the ingredients.
  7. Add the fresh chopped parsley and serve immediately.

An Italian touch can be offered by emphasizing the use of fresh, high-quality ingredients, such as freshly caught shrimp if possible, and fresh cream. You could also enrich the dish with a sprinkle of grated lemon zest to add a touch of freshness. Enjoy your meal!
