Greg's Fettuccine Shrimp Delight... Source: Greg Mixson(Modified from a couple of Better Homes & Gardens recipes.) 6 slices bacon 6 ounces dried fettuccine or linguine 1 beaten egg 1 cup half-and-half, light cream, or milk 2 T margarine or butter 1/2 cup grated Parmesan or Romano cheese 1/4 cup snipped fresh parsley cooked shrimp for 6 (about 2 pounds) (prepared as you desire) coarsely ground pepper 1. Cook bacon till crisp. Drain on paper towels. Crumble or finely chop. 2. Cook fettuccine for 8 to 10 minutes or till tender but still firm. Drain well. 3. Meanwhile, for sauce, in a small saucepan combine egg, half-and-half, and margarine/butter. Cook and stir over medium heat until sauce just coats a metal spoon (about 6 minutes). Add the bacon. Immediately pour sauce over fettuccine; toss gently to coat. This is where Greg adds the pre-cooked shrimp to the recipe. 4. Add Parmesan cheese and parsley; toss gently to mix. Season with pepper to taste. Serve immediately. Makes 6 servings. (A good side dish if you do not include the shrimp.) |
