If you have 15 minutes to make dinner, you should make this creamy Cajun shrimp pasta. It’s super quick, beginner friendly, and it tastes incredible. Start by seasoning your prawns, and the full list of ingredients is in the caption. And we’re going to flash fry these in a really hot pan for 2 to 3 minutes, just until they cook through. And then put them aside. Then, while your pasta boils, we can make the sauce. So, melt some butter and add in the same seasonings as before. And give them about 30 seconds before you pour in some cream, a splash of pasta water, and some parmesan. Let it thicken up a bit. And then all you do is just throw everything in. the pasta, some cherry tomatoes, the prawns, and some parsley. Toss it all together until it’s all glossy and coated.
