Easy Shrimp and Asparagus Fettuccine Recipe
Make sure to REPIN this recipe 🙂
If you are looking for a simple bright and fresh dinner idea – this is a perfect fit
Since Asparagus is coming into season you will see it on sale at your local market – Asparagus is AMAZING on its own but it goes nicely with this pasta dish – adds tons of flavos
I added some Old Bay Seasoning in the dish — to emphasis the seafood focus of the dish
If you do not know what Old Bay seasoning is — it is sold in the spice section of your market – it comes in the rectangle tin and lasts for AGES – I use the old bay seasoning in my Red Lobster Biscuit recipe
I ended up using about 12 jumbo shrimp – we kept the tails on ( you do not have too but both my dad and I like how the look for the picture)
This dish itself is enough for 4 people – you can easily increase the serving amount – we used 1/2 pound of jumbo shrimp but you can totally double this recipe to a pound
I decided to serve this recipe in my favorite large blue bowl – that has in my family for at least 10 years ( I love using it during the Spring and Summer)
