Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp blackened seasoning
  • 8 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 small yellow onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine (like Sauvignon Blanc)
  • 1 1/2 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 8 oz egg noodles, cooked
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • Salt for pasta water and to taste
  • Black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Bring 4-6 quarts of salted water to a boil. Cook the egg noodles according to package directions, about 7-8 minutes. Drain and set aside without rinsing.
  2. Pat the shrimp completely dry with paper towels and season generously with blackened seasoning, pressing gently to adhere.
  3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp in a single layer (work in batches if needed) and cook for 1-2 minutes per side until pink and opaque. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  4. Add the mushrooms and onion to the same skillet. Cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  5. Pour in the white wine to deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until reduced by half.
  6. Stir in the beef broth and heavy cream. Bring to a simmer and let it cook for 5-7 minutes until the sauce has thickened slightly.
  7. Return the shrimp to the skillet. Add the cooked egg noodles and toss everything to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Don’t overcook the shrimp or they will become tough and rubbery. They only need 1-2 minutes per side.
  • Deglazing the pan with wine is crucial for building flavor. Don’t skip this step.
  • For extra heat, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the blackened seasoning or hot sauce to the finished dish.
  • Substitute white wine with chicken broth plus 1 tablespoon lemon juice if preferred.
  • Sodium content varies based on blackened seasoning and broth brand used.
