Introduction
A rich and creamy Italian classic featuring perfectly cooked fettuccine tossed with tender, juicy shrimp in a luscious garlic, white wine, and Grana Padano cream sauce. The addition of homemade shrimp shell stock elevates the depth of flavor.
Step 1
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat.
Step 2
Add minced garlic to the skillet and sauté until fragrant and lightly golden.
Step 3
Add the seasoned shrimp to the skillet in a single layer. Cook on one side until they change color, then flip to sear the other side. Do not overcook to keep them tender.
Step 4
Add the butter to the skillet with the shrimp and let it melt completely, stirring it around.
Step 5
Pour in the white wine and simmer until the alcohol evaporates and the liquid reduces slightly.
Ingredients List
Important Notes
To make the flavorful fish stock, boil the discarded shrimp shells with onion, celery, and carrots in water for 1 to 1.5 hours.
Be careful not to overcook the shrimp in the initial step as they will continue cooking when returned to the sauce later.
Cooking pasta in a generous amount of water with regular stirring is key to preventing the fettuccine from sticking.
