Sauce
DON’T overcook shrimp: Cook the shrimp until the shrimp just turns pink, not much longer than that; it will finish cooking later in the sauce Pasta trick: I like to toss my cooked pasta in a little olive oil to keep it from sticking together while it waits for the rest of the recipe to come together. Fresh shrimp is superior: I like to use fresh shrimp from the deli if it’s available, but frozen shrimp works just as well. Make sure to thaw it completely before using it.
Cool: Make sure the dish has cooled completely before putting it in an airtight container. Refrigerate: Put the container in the fridge; it will last up to 3 days. Reheat: To reheat Marry Me Shrimp Pasta, transfer it to a microwave-safe dish or saucepan. Add a splash of water, broth, or cream to maintain its creamy texture. Microwave covered for 30-second increments, stirring in between, or reheat gently on the stovetop over low heat, stirring occasionally. DO NOT freeze: We do not recommend freezing this dish. It will affect the texture of the shrimp and the creaminess of the sauce.
