Directions:
-
Melt Butter: In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat until it’s sizzling and fragrant.
-
Sauté Aromatics: Add minced garlic and finely chopped onion to the melted butter. Sauté until they turn translucent and fragrant, typically about 2-3 minutes.
-
Add Vegetables: Incorporate finely sliced leek, diced carrot, celery, and tomatoes into the skillet. Sauté the mixture until the vegetables become tender and release their flavors, stirring occasionally for about 5-7 minutes.
-
Season and Simmer: Season the vegetable mixture with salt and pepper to taste. Then, pour in the cream, stirring well to combine all ingredients. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat.
-
Add Shrimp: Once the mixture is gently boiling, reduce the heat to low and carefully add in the shrimp. Allow them to cook gently in the creamy sauce until they turn pink and opaque, typically about 4-5 minutes.
-
Cook Pasta: While the shrimp are cooking, prepare the fettuccine pasta according to the package instructions until it reaches the desired al dente texture.
-
Combine: Once the pasta is cooked, drain it well and transfer it to a large serving bowl. Pour the creamy shrimp and vegetable sauce over the cooked fettuccine.
-
Toss and Serve: Toss the pasta and sauce together until the fettuccini is evenly coated in the delicious creamy mixture. Serve hot and enjoy!
