Equipment

  • Large Deep Skillet
  • Colander

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 medium yellow onion (diced)
  • 1/4 cup sundried tomatoes (diced)
  • 200 g kolbassa sausage (or similar sausage, sliced)
  • 4 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 2 1/2 cups chicken or vegetable stock (plus more if needed)
  • 1 can fire-roasted tomatoes (398mL, with juices)
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 3 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • 250 g dry fettuccine (or your preferred pasta)
  • 1 pound shrimp (peeled and deveined)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream (or coconut cream for dairy-free)

Instructions
 

  • Heat olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced onion and sundried tomatoes, cooking for 4-5 minutes until the onion is translucent.
  • Add the sliced sausage and minced garlic, cooking for another 4-5 minutes until the sausage is slightly crisp.
  • Stir in the tomato paste, stock, fire-roasted tomatoes, paprika, and Italian seasoning. Mix well.
  • Add the dry fettuccine, ensuring it's submerged in the sauce. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and cover.
  • Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. If the sauce thickens too much, add more stock or water as needed.
  • Once the pasta is almost al dente, add the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes until they turn pink and opaque.
  • Pour in the heavy cream and stir to combine. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until warmed through.
  • Remove from heat and serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
