Shrimp Scampi with Chipotle Peppers in Adobo Sauce
|
¾ lb. shrimp, peeled and deveined |
|
1 tablespoon chopped chipotle peppers in adobo sauce |
|
1 garlic clove, minced |
|
1 tablespoon olive oil |
|
2 tablespoons white wine or chicken broth |
|
½ tablespoon Dijon mustard |
|
½ tablespoon Worcestershire sauce |
|
6 tablespoons butter, melted |
|
¼ teaspoon salt |
|
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice |
|
8 ounces fettuccine, cooked |
|
Fresh parsley and Parmesan cheese for garnish |
Sauté peppers and garlic in hot oil in large skillet over medium heat until thoroughly heated.
Add shrimp and cook, stirring constantly, about 2 minutes or until shrimp turn pink. Remove shrimp and set aside.
Stir in white wine, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce; cook about 1-2 ,minutes.
Return shrimp to skillet. Stir in butter, salt, and lemon juice; cook 1-2 minutes or until combined and thoroughly heated.
Place pasta in large serving dish; toss with shrimp mixture. Sprinkle with parmesan and parsley.
NOTE: I found this in the April 2001 Southern Living. It called for medium shrimp, but I used 26/30 count. I cut the recipe in half and it fed us easily. I also probably used 4-6 ounces of fettucine and I used white wine rather than chicken broth.
The full recipe calls for ¾ cup of butter, which is 12 tablespoons; hence the six tablespoons I used. And next time I’ll probably add a bit more of the chipotle peppers but not TOO much more!
