PACCHERI AL FORMAGGIO CON GAMBERI PICCANTI
Shrimply amazing
Ingredients
Serves 4
1 box of paccheri pasta (or any tube shaped passed will do)
Cheese sauce:
1/4 c. shredded gouda
1/4 c. shredded sharp cheddar
1/2 c. of shredded mozzarella
1/4 c. of heavy whipping cream
1 tsp of flour to thicken sauce
salt and pepper to your liking
Shrimp:
1/2 lbs of fresh peeled shrimp
1/4 golden onion, diced
Chayanne pepper
1 serrano pepper sliced
1/2 stick of butter
​
Instructions
Boil pasta 2 min before indicated time (leaving it al dente). Set aside while you make shrimp.
Shrimp
On medium heat, simmer onions and the serrano in butter until tender (3-4 min). Then season raw shrimp with chayanne, salt, and pepper and add to the pan with onions and serranos. Once the shrimp is fully cooked, transfer into a bowl adding the juices that remain in the pan. Allow them to rest while you make the cheese sauce.
Cheese Sauce
In a deep pan, add 1/4 stick of butter and whipping cream on low to medium heat. Add flour, and stir. Once the flour has been incorporated into the mix, add milk and slowly start to add all of the cheeses, constantly mixing. Don't let the cheese mix stick to the bottom of the pan, and be careful not to over heat the cheese. Finally add the shrimp and its juices and stir. Then as soon as you are ready to serve, add the pasta and enjoy!
