15-Minute Creamy Tomato Garlic Butter Shrimp
Linguini pasta gets a delicious make over with this 15-Minute Creamy Tomato Garlic Butter Shrimp! A quick and easy flavourful weeknight or weekend dinner that comes together in minutes!
15-Minute Creamy Tomato Garlic Butter Shrimp… Only 15 minutes? How much easier could a recipe get?!
This is one favour packed shrimp! Even my super picky 7 year old loved this, which is saying A LOT.
If you’re looking for a way to change up your pasta game — this is it. Shrimp first gets sautéed in buttery garlic and a hint of basil, before being smothered in a creamy marinara sauce (or passata for us over here), with linguini, fettuccine, or your pasta of choice mixed through with a generous amount of parmesan cheese. Good…huh?
My house has become a crazy town. Videos flying left, right and centre. Children flying centre, right and left. Food flowing out of our ears. Daily supermarket runs happening in two’s or three’s because chemo brain equals colander brain (ie. many holes in it = thoughts drain out easily). And one pan meals, like these, saving my life.
You would think with all of the food being cooked in here, we wouldn’t need to come up with dinners… BUUUHT there are enough of us here to start a soccer team. Or, that’s what it feels like with the noise reaching critical levels.
All that chaos aside, I sat myself down last week with a glass of wine (may have been over-sized), and thoroughly enjoyed every creamy, tomato-ey, pasta/shrimp filled moment.
