Red Pepper Garlic Butter

Shrimp And Fettuccine

Steps

1
Pulse all the butter ingredients in a food process until mostly smooth. Refrigerate or set aside. (You’ll have A LOT of butter and you’ll only need a few tablespoons for this recipe. Keep the extras in the freezer for more of this, or similar recipes, in the future!)
2
Cook the fettuccine according to package directions. Add pasta back to warm pot and toss with 2-3 tablespoons red pepper garlic butter, cream, and water. Adding reserved water as needed to thin out the sauce.
3
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the red pepper garlic butter. Once the butter is melted, add shrimp and saute for a few minutes on each side until cooked through. To make it look creamy, add 1-2 tablespoons of the red pepper butter with a quick splash of cream to the hot pan and toss to combine.
4
Divide the pasta and shrimp among 3-4 plates. Enjoy!

Notes

For the herbs in the butter, my favorites are a mix of parsley, green onion, and cilantro.

You could also use jarred calabrian peppers which are delicious in this!
