How to cook deliciously - Angel Hair Pasta with Shrimp and Parmesan Lemon Cream Sauce

1. Stage

Heat salted water for pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. (1 Tbsp salt for every 2 quarts water)

2. Stage

Simmer cream, stock, lemon juice: In a smaller pot, heat the cream, chicken stock and lemon juice to a low simmer. Simmer gently for 3 to 4 minutes.

3. Stage

Add the angel hair pasta to the boiling water

4. Stage

Add the shrimp to the simmering lemon cream sauce: Stir well and add a pinch of salt and black pepper. The shrimp should cook in about the same time as the angel hair pasta, about 3 to 4 minutes. Halfway through the cooking, stir in the parsley and chives.

5. Stage

Drain pasta, combine with shrimp, sauce, zest, Parmesan: When the pasta is done, drain and put it in a large bowl. Stir in the shrimp and lemon cream sauce, the lemon zest, and most of the Parmesan. Divide into servings, and top with the remaining parmesan. Note, if the resulting mixture seems too dry, just add a little water or cream. If it seems too wet, don't worry, the pasta will absorb the sauce. Did you enjoy this recipe? Let us know with a rating and review!
