There’s just something about the experience of eating a plate of noodles that makes you want more.
Shrimp with Lemon and Garlic Sauce over Pappardelle Pasta is one of the favorite Italian ways of serving pappardelle. This sauce can also be used with any other fresh or dried broad noodles. Bear in mind that, other than during springtime when fresh English peas are at their peak of the season, you are best off making this dish with frozen peas; look for a good brand of frozen petite peas, which should have excellent flavor and texture in the finished sauce.

Shrimp with Lemon & Garlic Sauce over Pappardelle Pasta
Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp. olive oil
- 4 garlic cloves, finely minced
- 1 tsp sweet paprika
- 1 lb. large shrimp, peeled and deveined, tail on
- 2 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
- 1 tsp lemon zest
- 3-4 Tbsp. dry white wine
- 1 cup green peas
- salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 2 Tbsp. chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 cup, freshly shredded Pecorino Romano cheese to serve
- Pappardelle pasta with wheat germ (about 1/2 lb.) or use other pasta of your choice linguine or fettuccine
- 2-3 Tbsp. unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add two teaspoons salt and the pasta to the boiling water. Cook, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until al dente, according to the package instructions. After pasta is cooked drain well and dress it with melted butter.
In a sauté pan over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the garlic, paprika and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Increase the heat to high, add the shrimp, lemon juice, lemon zest, and dry white wine, stir well, and sauté until the shrimp turn pink and are opaque throughout about 3-5 minutes. Add green peas and cook one more minute. Season with salt and black pepper.
Serve shrimp and peas immediately over cooked pasta, sprinkle with the cilantro and freshly shredded cheese.

The winner of the Savora Rotary Grater Giveaway is a comment #15 (I don’t count my own comment). The tool goes to “Picnic At Marina”. Congratulations! Marina, please contact me with your address. Thank you, everyone, for participation.
I have a new toy in my kitchen – Rotary Grater. The eye-catching design is truly inspired by the passion and romance surrounding food culture. This kitchen tool is designed to affect people emotionally.
It is also absolutely fantastic in use. It grates quickly, with little effort, and it is easy to direct the cheese straight from the grater onto the dish you are making. It is sturdy and super easy to disassemble, clean and put back together.
Friends from Savora, Lifetime Brands, offered to send a Savora Rotary Grater in Indigo to one of my dear readers.

February 27, 2013 at 9:42 pmIs "sweet paprika" a kind of spice that I should look for, or you mean sweet by not "smoked" paprika? Sorry for silly question. I'm sure my paprika doesn't say sweet, so I need to find out! Looks so easy and delicious. Definitely this will be on our table soon!
And my favorite kitchen tool? Gosh what is my favorite… I use grater often for grinding ginger, garlic, daikon, etc. 🙂

February 27, 2013 at 9:55 pmThank you Nami for your comments, I think "sweet paprika" and "smoked paprika" it's two different spices. For this recipe you may use either one.
