Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons butter
• salt to taste
• 1 ½ cups heavy whipping cream
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 tablespoon minced garlic
• ½ cup white wine
• 1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 1 (16 ounce) package angel hair pasta
• 20 leaves fresh basil, chopped
• 1 ½ pounds roma (plum) tomatoes, chopped

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Mix basil, olive oil, garlic, Italian seasoning, and salt in a bowl. Add shrimp and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.

Step 2

Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove shrimp from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.

Step 3

Cook shrimp on preheated grill until they are bright pink on the outside and the meat is no longer transparent in the center, about 5 minutes.

Step 4

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook angel hair in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until cooked through but firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain.

Step 5

Melt butter in a large, nonstick skillet over medium heat; stir in white wine and bring to a boil. Add heavy cream and Parmesan cheese; simmer until reduced, about 10 minutes. Stir in angel hair pasta, tomatoes, and mozzarella cheese. Top with shrimp to serve.
