date night lemon pappardelle with shrimp

Date night pastas are my favorite.
Especially those that involve silky-smooth, creamy, lemon pappardelle ribbons topped with freshly ground black pepper and a pile of impossibly juicy, buttery, tender jumbo shrimp. Is there anything more romantic than a fork-twirl of creamy noodles with some cooked shrimp to effortless perfection in ONLY BUTTER? I cannot even express my love properly. The simplicity, the purity of textures and flavors, the combination of everything on the plate… goodbye.
Reasons date night pastas are ideal:
  • Just because it’s date night! You don’t have to wait for Valentine’s or a reason to celebrate, or even another person, for that matter. It’s a special treat, a little mini-celebration of life and love, just because! Nothing better than that.
  • Pasta is fancy-feeling.
  • Pasta is manageable and fast.
  • Pasta can be made in small-ish batches.
  • Pasta is SO SERIOUSLY GOOD.
  • Pasta goes well with wine. Which goes well with date night.

WE’RE MAKING LEMON PAPPARDELLE WITH SHRIMP!

Step 1: Boil your noodles. After they’re done cooking, set them aside and toss with a little olive oil so that they don’t stick together.
Step 2: Add your garlic to a pool of melted butter. Add your white wine (sizzzzzzle!) and cream. Bring to a simmer and in goes your fresh lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and Parmesan cheese.
Step 3: Cook up your cute little shrimp. Just a couple minutes per side here.
Step 4: Add your noodles to the warm, creamy sauce and pile those buttery shrimp on top. Fresh, bright, fancy-feeling date night comin’ right up!
