Shrimp Pasta In a Cazuela

She sells seashells down by the seashore..


Shellfish.. hard to beat.. we enjoy it so much..one way we enjoy preparing it is simply in a cazuela..with garlic and EVOO..some herbs..chili peppers,and white wine if you wish..


9-10 mins at 400 in the oven..

Add your cooked pasta and twirl..The dish stays hot and delicious..


The quickest pasta dish in our kitchen..



I add Parmigiano..and crushed croûtons..I know I know.. many people don't like shrimp and cheese but we do..

Did you notice..not even a recipe?

  4. This must be the archetypal shrimp and pasta dish. Delicioso!

    And I like knowing we also share a love for seashells. But, of course. I don't know how, but, I still believe we're twins.

  8. Those seashells make my heart skip a beat!

    Me too ~ I would add Parmesan and crushed croûtons, too. It's that little extra touch that makes the dish magnificent, imo.

    C'est beau, Mme!!

  12. Beautiful pictures. Your pasta looks so delicious. Nice and simple. The best dishes don't require recipes :)

  13. this looks great. and i really love the idea in general of doing a sauce in a clay pot in the oven and then tossing in the pasta - because done the 'normal' way, pasta always gets cold too fast!

  15. Oh this looks so good, Monique. It reminds me of shrimp with spaghetti that I had in Ville Franche... yes, shrimp and cheese!

    Non... no mail yet :( Hoping tomorrow, sweet friend.

  16. Monique that shot of garlic is one of the nicest I've seen. The pictures in this are soft and warm. It makes me wonder what lense you're shooting with.

  17. Monique, do you collect sea shells? :) I love seafood like you do, and I could never say no to shrimps and cheese! This is your fastest pasta dish in the kitchen? Are you talking about the cooking or the eating? ;) I did notice the absence of a recipe ... did you notice I didn't have one either on my Tofu Puffs post? LOL! The best and tastiest dishes are all made by using our senses, aren't they? :) Ju

  18. Good Morning!the lens for the 3 soft photos is the Canon 55-250 Zoom.. Not a well lit room..sun going down through the back window.
    I thought they were "fluffy"and not clear... but for lack of any good shots and still wanting to talk to everyone I just did it:)

    Ju I did notice and cannot wait to get to my favorite Asian shot..I thought my little pork dumpling filling might be good and my children love that kind of food:)


    Have agreat day..

  23. Monique...again a smile from me. I am in Naples, Florida for a long weekend, and acquired some lovely shells I wanted to use with a shrimp post!

    Lovely pics...I'm glad Laura asked...I wondered also.

    Thanks and enjoy your day.
