It may seem like a lot of ingredients, but you'll make this often, so keep these items on hand.

I have enjoyed making this recipe since 2005 and it never fails to please.

This was just okay. Adding some red pepper and keeping the pasta hot would help. I didn't like the slightly warm to cold taste of the pasta since it was sitting on the counter waiting for the shrimp. Might make again, but will need lots of tweeking!
