Pro Tips
I buy shrimp labeled “peeled, deveined, and tails off” for much easier prep.
Leftovers can be kept in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 1-2 days. The pasta will dry out a bit as it sits.
Recipe FAQs
We love to serve this with some crusty bread, or garlic bread, and a side salad.
