Shrimp Linguine

Shrimp Linguine 1 lb. of cooked large shrimp (thawed and tails removed) 2 T. butter 3 cloves of garlic, minced 1 (14.5 oz.) can of diced tomatoes (I bought the tomatoes with basil, garlic & oregano) pinch of crushed red pepper salt and pepper 2 t. light brown sugar 1 c. of half and half (plus a splash more) 3 T. fresh parsley or 1 t. dried parsley 1/4 c. (heaping) of freshly grated Parmesan cheese (plus extra cheese for topping) 8 oz. cooked linguine Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and saute for 2-3 minutes until fragrant.minced garlic (I may have added more than called for). Next add the canned tomatoes. I broke up the tomatoes in a mini food processor before adding them, I’m not a fan a big chunks of tomato. You can omit this step or if you’re not a fan you can keep this step. I thought it looked liked a better finished product also, if you’re going on eye appeal. Add the crushed red pepper, a pinch or two of salt and the brown sugar. Cook for about 5 minutes. Next add the half and half and don’t forget that extra splash. Add the parsley also. Bring to a slow boil and then immediately turn heat down to medium-low. Cook for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally until mixture reduces by a third. While this is reducing, cook your linguine according to package directions. Lastly, add the shrimp, parmesan cheese and a little freshly ground black pepper. Cover and simmer for about 3 minutes until shrimp are heated through and the cheese is melted. Add the linguine and simmer another 3-4 minutes. Serve immediately and top with some more parmesan cheese and fresh cracked pepper.
