Inspired by a well-loved dish from a certain renowned steakhouse (we won’t drop names here), this recipe is certain to impress at any dinner table.
Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon poultry seasoning
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
- ⅛ teaspoon ground white pepper
- ⅛ teaspoon onion powder
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ½ cup milk
- 1 pound linguine pasta
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ cup white wine
- 4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
- 8 ounces shrimp
- 3 tablespoons grated Romano cheese
Instructions:
- Begin by mixing together the garlic powder, poultry seasoning, cayenne pepper, white pepper, and onion powder in a small bowl. Divide this spice mixture in half.
- In a small skillet, melt the butter over low heat. Gradually stir in the cream, milk, and half of the prepared spice mixture. Continue cooking this sauce on low heat, stirring frequently, until it is slightly reduced and has thickened to your preferred consistency. Once done, remove it from heat and set it aside.
- While preparing the sauce, preheat a grill to high heat. Simultaneously, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta in the boiling water until al dente, which usually takes about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain the pasta and set it aside.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully stir in the white wine and the remaining spice mixture. Place the chicken breasts in the skillet and cook them until they are no longer pink in the center, with clear running juices. This usually takes about 16 to 20 minutes. Once done, remove the skillet from heat and set it aside.
- Lightly oil the grill grate. Grill the shrimp until they turn slightly opaque, which usually takes about 3 to 4 minutes.
- Finally, serve each chicken breast on a bed of linguine, topped with grilled shrimp. Generously ladle the cream sauce over the dish and garnish with Romano cheese.
This Grilled Shrimp and Chicken Pasta recipe delivers an indulgent and exquisite experience in every bite. Enjoy the harmonious blend of flavors that will make any dinner feel like a special occasion.
