Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 8 oz egg noodles
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
- Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
- Season the shrimp with Cajun seasoning. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook until blackened and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until tender, around 4 minutes.
- Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the heavy cream and let it thicken slightly, about 3-5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cook the egg noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside, reserving a little pasta water if needed.
- Add the cooked shrimp to the creamy sauce, mixing well. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the mixture over the egg noodles and garnish with fresh parsley.
Notes
This dish is best served warm and can be paired with a simple side salad or some crusty bread. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for 2-3 days. Add a splash of chicken broth when reheating to restore creaminess.
