That looks amazingly delicious! Do you know where I can get the exact recipe with the measurements and all that jazz?
It looks so perfect in your pictures! I love shrimp and pasta so this combination is something I've GOT to try!
Thanks! I actually don't have the
exact
measurements but I will try my best since I sort of just winged the amounts to what I thought would be best
*2 cloves of garlic
5 Cilantro leaves
*1.5 tbsp butter
*1 cup pasta (I used rotini)
*2/3 cup shrimp
*A pinch of salt/pepper (optional)
1/3 cup milk (cream will work too)
I put a * next to ingredients that I believe wouldn't matter too much if you wanted to add more/less
Boil water and add pasta. Smash the garlic and cut it. Cut the cilantro. With low heat, add butter into another pot and distribute around the pot until it is melted. Add the garlic and cilantro into that same pot. Cook until garlic is light brown (it cooks really fast). Add shrimp and pepper/salt. Once the shrimp is cooked (orange colored) add milk. Let it all simmer until there isnt too much milk (because this will make it really soggy if there's too much). Pasta should be finished by then, if not let it cook for a while longer. Strain the water out and add pasta into the pot with all the other ingredients and stir (I just do it like this because I didn't really want to mix everything on a plate =P). Fin.
Feel free to alter the amounts of the ingredients. If you want to add more shrimp or pasta go for it!. I don't think it'll alter the taste too much.
Good Luck!
