Quick Tips
- 1
Pat the shrimp dry
Blot thawed shrimp with paper towels before they hit the pan so they sear instead of steam. Wet shrimp turn out rubbery and gray.
- 2
Cook shrimp two minutes
Give them 1 to 2 minutes per side over medium-high heat and pull them the second they curl into a C. Shrimp cooked to an O shape are overdone.
- 3
Save a cup of pasta water
Scoop out 1 cup of starchy water before draining and splash it in if the sauce tightens up. It loosens cream sauce without thinning the flavor.
- 4
Add cheese off the heat
Take the pan off the burner before stirring in grated Parmesan so it melts smooth. Boiling cream sauce makes cheese clump and turn grainy.
