Blackened Shrimp Alfredo

Ingredients
2 tablespoons fresh basil, finely chopped
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
2 teaspoons blackening seasoning
1 lb peeled/deveined shrimp
Large zip-top bag
1 tablespoon olive oil
8 oz fettuccine pasta
8 oz steak-topper vegetables (fresh pre-sliced mushrooms, onions, bell peppers)
1/3 cup cream sherry
1 cup Alfredo sauce
1 tablespoon shredded Parmesan/Romano cheese

Prep
  • Put water on to boil for pasta.
  • Chop basil; set aside.
Steps
  1. Preheat large sauté pan on medium-high 2–3 minutes. Place seasonings and shrimp in zip-top bag; seal bag and shake to coat. Place oil in pan, then arrange shrimp in single layer; cook 2 minutes without turning.
  2. Cook pasta following package instructions.
  3. Add vegetables to shrimp. Rotate shrimp to top and cover; cook and stir 2–3 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Stir in remaining ingredients (including basil); reduce heat to medium-low, cook and stir 1–2 minutes or until sauce is hot.
  4. Drain pasta; return to pan. Stir shrimp mixture into pasta; cook and stir 1–2 more minutes or until thoroughly heated. Serve.
