Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb fettuccine
2 cups shrimp (peeled and deveined)
3 tablespoons olive oil
6 garlic cloves
1 teaspoon anchovy paste
3 green onions (sliced)
6 fresh basil leaves (finely chopped)
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup parmesan cheese (finely grated)
1/2 cup parsley (minced)
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • In a large pan, cook the pasta in boiling salted water according to pkg directions. I add about 1 tbl olive oil to my pasta water too.
  • As soon as you put the pasta water on to boil, heat 3 tbl olive oil in a heavy saucepan over low heat. Gently saute the whole garlic cloves until each clove is just golden brown and easily pieced with a fork. Remove garlic cloves and on a cutting board mash cloves with a fork and mix with anchovy paste. Turn burner off.
  • As soon your pasta water begins to boil and you've added the pasta, reheat the sauce pan of oil. Return mashed garlic/anchovy paste to the warm olive oil and simmer for a minute. Add basil and green onions, gently stir, making sure the mashed garlic is distributed and simmer for about 1-2 minutes. Add cream, Parmesan cheese, parsley and salt and pepper to taste. Add shrimp and simmer for less then a minute. Toss shrimp and sauce with drained pasta and serve.
