The best recipes strike a balance between ease and versatility. This shrimp tortellini recipe does just that. It’s quick and easy when I need dinner on the table fast, but when I have the time to flex my culinary muscles, I can add my own personal touches to make it new and exciting.<\/p>\n
Shrimp tortellini is a beginner-friendly, Italian-inspired pasta toss made with cheesy tortellini, succulent shrimp and green peas. You can customize this skillet sensation with your favorite veggies, herbs and seasonings (I personally like to double down on decadence with a hearty drizzle of garlic cream sauce<\/a>\u00a0just before serving).\u00a0It comes together in minutes in just one pan, making it a win-win dish for my busy family.<\/p>\n Cook the tortellini according to package directions, adding the peas during the last five minutes of cooking.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook them for two minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the chopped garlic and cook for one to two minutes longer or until the shrimp turns pink.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> Saute the shrimp until they just turn pink and start to curl. They can become rigid and rubbery if left on the heat for too long. Look for a “C” shape. They’re on the verge of overcooking once they get to an “O” shape.<\/p>\n Drain the tortellini and peas, and add them to the skillet with the shrimp. Stir in salt, thyme, pepper and the remaining oil. Toss until everything is coated. Garnish the shrimp tortellini with grated Parmesan cheese.<\/p>\n Store leftovers in the refrigerator in a food-safe container for up to three to four days. To reheat shrimp tortellini, gently heat the leftovers over low heat on the stovetop or in the microwave until heated through.<\/p>\n The best way to thaw frozen shrimp for shrimp tortellini it is to transfer it from the freezer to the fridge the day before using it. Be sure to place bagged shrimp in a bowl or on a rimmed baking sheet to catch any leaks. You can also simply thaw the shrimp under cold running water until it’s thawed enough to clean.<\/p>\n When it comes to cooking shrimp, it’s all about timing. They’re perfectly cooked when they turn pink and hold a curved shape. Once you see that, it’s time to remove them from the heat.<\/p>\n Shrimp tortellini is a meal on its own, but a side of roasted veggies, like parmesan roasted broccoli <\/a>or oven-baked asparagus<\/a>, can round it out wonderfully. An Italian chopped salad<\/a> featuring crunchy greens is a nice touch. For dessert, try tiramisu, cannoli, homemade strawberry gelato<\/a> or one of these Nonna-approved Italian desserts<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Shrimp tortellini is an easy and versatile pasta toss that comes that comes together in minutes.
