How to Make Copycat Shrimp And Tasso Pasta

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add 4 ounces of diced tasso ham and sauté for 5-7 minutes, until the fat renders and the tasso is browned.
  3. Add 8 ounces of shrimp and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until pink and curled. Be careful not to burn the butter.
  4. Stir in 1 cup of Alfredo sauce until well combined.
  5. Add ½ cup of heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Do not boil vigorously.
  6. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce slightly thickens. Do not allow the sauce to reduce significantly.
  7. Cook 1 pound of pasta according to package directions. Drain well.
  8. Add the cooked pasta to the skillet with the shrimp and tasso sauce. Toss to coat evenly.
  9. Serve immediately in a bowl, topped with 2 tablespoons of chopped green onions and 1 ounce of grated Parmesan cheese.
