Step-by-Step Instructions for Boursin Pasta
- In a mixing bowl, combine peeled large Argentinian shrimp with lemon juice, olive oil, Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and oregano. Marinate for about 10 minutes.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil. Add marinated shrimp in a single layer and sauté for 1-2 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque. Remove shrimp and set aside.
- In the same skillet, melt butter. Add chopped onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until soft. Pour in heavy cream, stirring, and mix in the slurry made of flour, cooking for another minute until smooth.
- Return cooked shrimp to the skillet and stir until heated through. Add Boursin cheese and parsley, stirring gently until cheese melts and creates a velvety sauce.
- Meanwhile, boil salted water in a large pot. Add penne pasta and cook until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Reserve ½ cup of pasta water before draining.
- Add drained pasta to the skillet with the sauce, tossing together, adding reserved pasta water as needed for desired sauciness. Serve hot, garnished with Parmesan and extra parsley.
