How to Make Spicy Shrimp And Chicken Pasta Like Carino's
- Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Grill or pan-fry until cooked through (about 6-8 minutes per side).
- Let chicken cool slightly, then slice into bite-sized pieces.
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add shrimp and chicken to the skillet. Cook until shrimp is pink and opaque (about 3-4 minutes).
- Add sliced mushrooms and sun-dried tomatoes; sauté for 2-3 minutes until mushrooms are tender.
- Stir in heavy cream, Romano cheese, and cayenne pepper. Start with 1 teaspoon of cayenne and add more to your desired spice level.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring frequently, until the sauce has thickened slightly (about 5-7 minutes).
- While the sauce simmers, cook pasta according to package directions until al dente.
- Drain pasta and add it to the skillet with the shrimp and chicken mixture.
- Toss to coat the pasta evenly with the sauce.
- Serve immediately. Garnish with extra Romano cheese if desired.
