Let's Get Cooking --- Cajun Shrimp & Andouille Alfredo Over Pasta


  • Hola Bloggers!!!!

    I recently went to a wedding (Congrats again Johnny & Dominique Patton) and they served some Cajun shrimp & andouille Alfredo with bow tie pasta. The caterer did an amazing job. I came home and decided I would try my best to recreate this recipe but add my own twist and THIS is what I came up with. I hope you guys enjoy.


  • Ingredients:
  • 1 pound unpeeled, fresh shrimp
  • (12-ounce) package fettuccine 
  • 1/2 pound Andouille sausage, chopped
  • 1/2 cup butter or margarine 
  • medium onion, chopped 
  • small green bell pepper, chopped
  • celery ribs, chopped (about 1 cup) 
  • garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • 6 ounces cheese, cubed
  • 3/4 cup chopped green onions
  • 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Directions:

Cook Time: 
Prep Time: 

  1. Peel shrimp, and devein, if desired. Set aside.
  2. Prepare fettuccine according to package directions; drain pasta, and set aside. (I used Penne)
  3. Cook sausage in a large skillet over medium heat 10 minutes or until browned; remove sausage, and drain. Set sausage aside.
  4. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add shrimp, and cook 5 minutes or just until shrimp turn pink. Remove shrimp, and keep warm.
  5. Add onion and next 3 ingredients; cook, stirring constantly, over medium heat 10 minutes. Stir in Cajun seasoning and flour. Cook over medium heat, 1 minute, stirring constantly. Gradually stir in chicken broth. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Boil 1 minute. Reduce heat to medium-low, and stir in heavy cream; cook over medium-low heat 8 minutes or until mixture simmers. Add cheese cubes, sausage, and shrimp, stirring until cheese melts.
  6. Stir in chopped green onions, Parmesan cheese, and chopped fresh parsley. Serve over hot cooked fettuccine or your choice of pasta.
