Pasta with shrimp scampi in a slow cooker in 20 minutes topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tbsp. l. olive oil
- 6 crushed garlic cloves
- 3/4 cup dry white wine
- Juice and zest of 1 lemon
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
- 6 green onions, chopped
- 350 g thin spaghetti, broken in half
- 700 g frozen shrimp, peeled and deveined
- Garlic bread, for serving, optional
- Green salad, for serving, optional
- Special equipment: multicooker with a capacity of 6–8 liters.
Preparation:
- Place the butter, olive oil, and garlic in a slow cooker and set the heat to high. Cook, stirring frequently, until the garlic is softened but not browned, about 3 minutes. Add the wine, lemon juice and zest, red pepper flakes, 2 teaspoons of salt, and a few grinds of black pepper. Bring to a boil and cook for 1 minute. Add 2 cups of water, then add half the pasta in one direction, then the other half in a crisscross pattern. Top with the shrimp and half the green onions.
- Following the manufacturer's instructions, close the lid and prepare the multicooker for use. Set the pressure cooker to high heat and cook for 1 minute. Once the cycle is complete, allow the steam to escape naturally. After 5 minutes, open and remove the lid, being careful not to burn yourself with steam.
- Using tongs, toss the pasta until evenly coated and free of lumps. Sprinkle with the remaining green onions and serve with a salad and garlic bread, if using.
Note Your multicooker settings may vary depending on the model.
