INGREDIENTS
Serves 2
1 pound raw medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
1/4 cup prepared pesto
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Combine all the ingredients in a medium sauté pan and boil fairly hard about 5 minutes or until the shrimp turn pink and the sauce thickens. Serve immediately.
BEWARE THE PINE NUTS!
It is important to remember that pesto almost always contains pine nuts, and that people with nut allergies may have an adverse reaction. Although most people with food allergies are quite vocal about their special needs, they sometimes forget or overlook them, especially after a few glasses of wine. Always announce the presence of nuts or nut oils when serving a dish to avoid any unpleasant accidents.
