Transport your taste buds to the vibrant flavors of the Caribbean with our tantalizing Jerk Shrimp Fettuccine—a fusion of spicy jerk seasoning, succulent shrimp, and creamy pasta that’s sure to delight your palate.
To start, marinate fresh shrimp in a flavorful blend of jerk seasoning, minced garlic, lime juice, and a splash of olive oil. Allow the shrimp to soak up the aromatic spices for at least 30 minutes to infuse them with bold flavor.
While the shrimp marinates, cook fettuccine pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain the pasta, reserving a cup of the cooking water, and set it aside.
Next, heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add the marinated shrimp, cooking them until they’re pink and opaque, with a delicious charred exterior. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set them aside.
In the same skillet, sauté diced bell peppers, onions, and sliced mushrooms until they’re tender and caramelized, adding a burst of color and sweetness to the dish.
Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet, along with the cooked fettuccine pasta. Toss everything together until the shrimp and pasta are evenly coated with the flavorful vegetables.
For the finishing touch, drizzle a generous amount of creamy Alfredo sauce over the shrimp and pasta, stirring gently to combine. If the sauce is too thick, you can thin it out with some of the reserved pasta cooking water until it reaches your desired consistency.
Garnish the Jerk Shrimp Fettuccine with freshly chopped parsley or cilantro for a pop of freshness and a burst of color. Serve it hot, with a wedge of lime on the side for squeezing over the dish, enhancing the vibrant flavors of the jerk seasoning and adding a touch of brightness to each bite.
