Preparation method

How do you make this?

Preparing scampi
Peel the scampi, leave the tail on for presentation and remove the intestines. Season lightly with salt and pepper.

Baking scampi
Heat a pan over high heat, add a knob of butter. Fry the scampi briefly on both sides until they are nicely colored. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Prepare sauce
Reduce the heat and add a little butter again. Stew the shallot and garlic until translucent. Deglaze with fish stock and let it reduce briefly. Add cream and tomato puree and heat briefly.

Cooking pasta
Cook the tagliatelle in plenty of salted water according to the package until al dente.

Bringing everything together
Add the pasta (with a little pasta water) to the sauce, mix well so that the sauce hangs nicely around the pasta. Add parsley and Parmesan cheese, mix again. Add the scampi and heat briefly.

Serve
Serve immediately, finished with extra Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley.

Tips

  • Fry the shrimp not too long, otherwise they will become tough. 
  • Add a pinch of chili flakes for extra kick. 
  • Fresh pasta gives a more luxurious result. 
  • Delicious with a fresh green salad or a piece of ciabatta to dip in the sauce. 
  • The sauce also goes well with risotto or grilled fish.
