I whipped this up the other night. The measurements aren’t exact because I just sort of made it up as I went along. Yes, I’m a freak for shrimp. I can’t help myself, I just love the little crustaceans. We will just call this recipe…ummmmm…
Shrimp and Noodles with Lemon Cajun Cream Sauce
- 2lbs. large shrimp, cleaned and deveined
- 1/2 c. chopped onions
- 1/2 c. chopped celery
- 1/3 c. butter
- 3 tbsp. olive oil
- juice of 2 lemons
- 1/2 c. heavy cream
- 3/4 c. parmesan cheese
- a splash of chicken broth
- Old Bay Seafood
- garlic powder
- lemon pepper
- kosher salt
- 3 dashes Tabasco
- 1 large package egg noodles
Cook egg noodles as indicated on package.
After shrimp are done add the cream and parmesan cheese and cook 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly. I didn’t think about it at the time but you could add a little lemon zest to brighten if wanted. Add the egg noodles and give it a taste and season more if needed. Arrrrrrrr you hungry?
