This week I am making Garlicky Prawns With Mushrooms In An Easy To Make Down And Dirty Alfredo Sauce. This is easy to make and is a true comfort dish. I got on a kick to make it from my friend Chef Dave Mooney. He made some last week and I have been dying for it all week long so here it is. The recipe can be found below. Enjoy! Manga!

Ingredients:
2 Tbsp. Olive oil.
1 Lbs. Fresh or frozen shrimp whatever you have on hand will work.
4 or more cloves of garlic minced well.
2-3 Tsp. Dried basil.
1 Tsp. Dried oregano.
Red pepper flakes to your liking.
8 oz Crimini mushrooms sliced.
1 Cup of half and half or heavy cream.
½ Cup of Gorgonzola cheese.
¾ Cup of Mozzarella cheese.
½ Cup pasta water.
½ Lbs. Linguine, fettuccine or regular spaghetti.
Instructions:
1. Heat a large skillet until hot - add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and immediately add garlic and shrimp, cook on one side for about 1 minute until pink on one side, on medium-high heat. Flip the shrimp to the other side, sprinkle the top of cooked side of shrimp with dry basil, paprika, and salt, cook for another 1-2 minutes, occasionally stirring, until shrimp is pink on both sides. Remove the shrimp from skillet. If shrimp is a little undercooked - it's OK because you will continue cooking it in the sauce.
2. To the same skillet add sliced mushrooms. Add more olive oil if necessary. Cook on high heat for about 2 minutes, occasionally stirring, until mushrooms become soft and release juices. Salt midway through cooking.
3. To the skillet with mushrooms, add cooked shrimp. Immediately add 1 cup half and half and all of the cheese - bring to boil, then reduce to simmer, and cook, constantly stirring, until all cheese melts. Cover with lid and remove from heat.
4. Cook pasta according to package instructions. Reserve some of pasta water. Drain and rinse pasta with cold water. Add pasta to the skillet with shrimp and mushrooms and cream sauce. Stir well, season with more salt and add more crushed red pepper flakes and basil, if desired.
5. If the cream sauce is too thick and you want it creamier - add some pasta water in small amounts until you reach desired consistency.
1. In a large skillet add 2-3 Tbsp. Olive and heat it up.
2. Add your garlic and shrimp to he skillet.
3. On medium high heat cook the shrimp until just pink.
4. Turn the shrimp and sprinkle with your dried or fresh basil, oregano and a pinch of salt.
5. Cook for 1 or 2 minutes stirring every now and again until shrimp is pink on both sides.
6. Now remove shrimp and set aside you will finish cooking it in another step.
7. To the same skillet add your mushrooms and a little more olive oil if needed.
8. Cook mushrooms on high heat 3 minutes stirring until mushrooms release water and get soft.
9. Add a pinch of salt to the mushrooms about halfway through cooking in step 8.
10. Now add back your cooked shrimp to the skillet with the mushrooms.
11. Quickly add 1 cup of half and half or heavy cream and all of your cheese.
12. Bring to a boil and then reduce to simmer cook stirring constantly to melt all the cheese.
13. Cover the skillet with a lid and remove from the heat.
14. Cook your pasta until al dente or a little softer if you like.
15. Keep at least once cup of the pasta water in reserve. Drain and rinse your pasta with cold water.
16. Add the pasta to the skillet with your shrimp and mushrooms and cream sauce now.
17. Mix together well.
18. Adjust with a little more salt, black pepper and red flakes as desired.
19. If your cream sauce is to thick add more cream to loosen or add some pasta water or stock.
