do you want shrimp alfredo, shrimp scampi, or shrimp carbonara when it comes to italian-american shrimp pastas?

>>21398503 (OP)
alfredo anything is always the best

>>21398503 (OP)
I don't care. Alfredo is low-class though, so it's my third choice. Just don't overcook the shrimp.

>>21398503 (OP)
alfredo

>>21398503 (OP)
I want a bunch of dicks in my ass

>>21398503 (OP)
I don't personally like shrimp and cheese but go ham dude who cares. Gobernador tacos are kind of similar flavor profile wise I guess.

Scampi or fra diavolo are probably your best bet

How is alfredo the low class option when cheese/cream are more luxury items than butter/garlic/egg?

Shrimp would go well with Arrabbiata sauce.

>>21398553
sounds fancy

Telakiti, scalayoohoo

Shrimp Mornetti spaghetti

got any pesto?

>>21398503 (OP)
Most likely the scampy, but certain days I would insist on alfredo. Never carbonara, it's just a poor man's alfredo and lacks chutzpah

>>21398503 (OP)
What the fuck is shrimp carbonara even supposed to be? It's not like you're gonna get some rendered fat from your shrimps. That's the base of every carbonara even if you use bacon instead of guanciale or pancetta

I think they make carbonara as normal and add shrimpies

Well I wouldn't scampi anything. Id alfredo. And that's what carbonara else did
>inb4 and you should feel bad
Go scoglio you-a face!

Scampi by a mile. It's so easy to make. Just saute some shrimps in olive oil and garlic with some squeeze of lemon, add some cooked pasta (angel hair preferred), a dash of pasta water and then freshly grated parmesan cheese until desired creaminess level. Garnished with a hefty amount of parsley, perfecto

It just is carbonara but adds shrimp to make it a protein heavy meal

You can use chicken in any of these but shrimp is tastier

>>21398503 (OP)
alfredo is vomit inducing
i just make pasta with a light creamy sauce then panfry the shrimp with butter and paprika and add them directly on the plate

>>21401751
Do you not like cheese? Traditional Alfredo is just Parmesan melted in butter, the modern American version is just Parmesan melted in cream

>>21401842
i add cheese to my pasta with creamy sauce and butter panfried shrimp

They are not luxury items, nor do places like Olive Garden who serve it actually use real dairy foods to make it. 9 out of 10 times a restaurant alfredo is from a bag or a mix. It takes real skill to make the other dishes. And also they're less heavy and more refined.

>You can only eat Alfredo at chain restaurants
Plenty people make this, anon. It's probably the third most definitive Italian American plated dish after Chicken Parmesan and Spaghetti and Meatballs

>>21398503 (OP)
In the UK, scampi means something very different. We offer scampi and chips as the sort of diet option instead of fish and chips. Need to slather them bitches in tartare sauce.

Well "scampi" in Italian is a shrimp like animal, in the US it refers to the usual dish of that animal "cooked in butter and garlic" but generally swapped with shrimp. And "shrimp scampi" is just sort of the shorthand name for the pasta dish

>>21402015
Cool. Here its shrimp/prawn off-cuts smooshed together, breaded and fried. It's basically tasteless and served as an alternative for people watching their weight because a full portion of fish and chips would be too much.

>>21402030
Like a shrimp sausage?

>>21402258
More like a shrimp chicken nugget

Right makes sense
