Couple of adjustments that I made; don’t use the flour, add pasta water instead. Pasta water already has starch in it, which acts as a thickener. Also, instead of using all the broth, use part of it and sub white wine. It added a lovely addition to the taste! I used calamarata (or pacchiere, it’s also called)  pasta.

I struggle to make recipes come to life in my kitchen but this recipe was detailed and user friendly. It is the tastiest dish I have made from any recipe outside of my family and I will definitely be remaking it. It has made me hopeful to explore other recipes on the site.

What is a single serving size for this recipe? Is the nutritional information provided the total
For all four servicing or is it for one?
For example is the 722 cal for one serving or the total for the entire four servings?

Amazing. Only differences were that I used fire roasted tomatoes instead and added a little sugar to the sauce at the end. Restaurant quality for sure.

I made this with a few substitutions since I am gluten and dairy free, it turned out delicious! I will say next time I am buying my shrimp already cleaned 😛 it took so long!! Other than the prep this was a huge hit, thank you so much for sharing the recipe!

This was excellent!  I made it as written but will add a handful of fresh spinach next time.  Yum.

Loved this recipe!! Paired this with cauliflower gnocchi instead of pasta for a healthier option, and it was unreal.

Made this delicious dish and served it over cheese grits in stead of pasta. It was a hit.  I will definitely make it again and again
