  • 2 tablespoons Italian seasoning, divided

For the Pasta & Sauce:

Notes

  • Using Frozen Shrimp? Defrost overnight in the fridge or run under cold water before cooking.
  • Alternative Cooking Method: Use Italian Roasted Shrimp instead of sautéing—roast while preparing the sauce!
  • Wine Substitute: Use chicken broth if you prefer to cook without wine.
  • Add Spice: Sprinkle in red pepper flakes for extra heat!
