Provided by Janda Potamus

Categories     Penne

Time 45m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 (20 ounce) containers digiorno low-fat alfredo sauce
1/2 lb chopped asparagus
1 tablespoon italian seasoning
48 shrimp, peeled and deveined (50-61ct)
1 lb penne rigate
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 red bell pepper
8 ounces fresh sliced mushrooms
1 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon creole seasoning

Steps:

  • Preparing Penne:.
  • In a large stockpot, add 4 quarts of water and 1 tbsp crushed red pepper and bring to a boil.
  • Add the 16oz package of penne rigate and stir every 2-3 minutes, maintaining a rolling boil. After approximately 14 minutes (time may vary slightly depending on brand of pasta) drain pasta and rinse in cold water to keep the pasta from cooking further.
  • Let pasta sit for 5 minutes after the rinse, and the starchiness will come back to the surface of the pasta, allowing the sauce to stick to each noodle.
  • Red Pepper and Tomato Cream Sauce:.
  • Dice red bell pepper and saute in a small skillet until it begins to soften.
  • Add fresh sliced mushrooms and saute for an additional 3 minutes.
  • Blanch chopped asparagus in a pan with 2 cups of water for 4 minutes, then drain.
  • Season shrimp with creole seasoning and fry in a large skillet.
  • Add alfredo sauces, shrimp, pepper-mushroom mixture, italian seasoning, tomato sauce, and asparagus to a sauce pan, and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low and add penne.
