Take-out Tuesday, Grilled Blackened Shrimp with Basil Fettucini Alfredo
Grilled Blackened Shrimp with Basil Fettucini Alfredo…
Sounds fancy doesn’t it??
Can you keep a secret?
Shhh…
It’s super easy to make!!
This is courtesy of HHjr
He is the definition of a morning person,
especially at the beach where
He gets up and goes to the grocery store before anyone else even stirs
“Did you already get stuff for dinner?” I asked when I got up around 7
“Yes,” he said
“I thought I’d make grilled blackened shrimp with basil fettucini Alfredo”
“Oh!”
😲
And just like that, we had this amazing dinner!
Variations:
Serve this shrimp on zucchini noodles, or
on a salad drizzled with warmed Alfredo instead of salad dressing
Grilled Blackened Shrimp with Basil Fettucini Alfredo
Ingredients
- fresh large shrimp 4-6 per person, peeled and deveined
- blackened seasoning**
- Basil Alfredo sauce* about 1/4-1/2 cup per serving
- fettucini noodles 2 oz per serving {we used fresh refrigerated fettucini noodles}
- fresh basil leaves for garnish
- Toasted french bread slices with garlic and Parmesan optional
Instructions
- Cook the pasta according to package directions or to your taste. Drain and return to hot pan. Toss pasta with basil Alfredo sauce, a lot or a little, it’s up to you, cover pan and keep warm.
- Thread shrimp onto skewers. Season shrimp with blackened seasoning. Grill over medium high until just done, about 5-8 minutes, turning once. Do not overcook or shrimp will be rubbery. Time depends on grill, heat and size of shrimp, so watch carefully.
- Place a small mound of pasta on each plate and top with blackened shrimp. Garnish with basil leaves. Serve with toasted parmesan garlic baguette slices if desired.
Notes

Oh Jenna, this looks amazing! My Renaissance Man and son would love this. Kudos to Chef HHjr. Have a wonderful day!
thanks Pam, I was impressed by how easy it was yet how fancy it sounds!
HHjr is quite the chef. How wonderful to wake up with your dinner already planned and shopped. I love shrimp almost anyway. Adding a pasta with a rich sauce is so delicious. I know you are having a fabulous summer.
I know, I really am spoiled, and it was so good!
OHHHH YUM!

Thank you Chloe! I don’t eat fish either, just shrimp, scallops and lobster 🙂
Jim would love this! Looks delicious……

Ok…Jenna…I do’t want this to sound bad…you know my heart, but can he come live at my house?
What a treat and I agree with the others….Shrimp is delish any old way. Luv ya
I know, I am really spoiled! Even when he goes to his friends houses he ends up doing the cooking! He thought about opening a restaurant but knew he would have long hours and many other not fun things to deal with and chooses to just cook for pleasure
Oh my! What a delicious looking plate! Love shrimp and this looks oh so good! What a son! I thank you for including all the other shrimp dishes also. Will have to check those out. Yum!
The guy loves to cook!! Thanks Cyndi!
Oh I love this. So easy and so fancy and so delicious!
Yes, so simple! Thanks Nancy
And hugs to your son for getting up and getting the groceries!
Sound delish Jenna! Aren’t you glad you have a chef / tile guy / contractor / fisherman for a son? 🙂
YES!
Awww Jenna, isn’t your son the sweetest??!! I love how he gets up early and takes charge with a fabulous dinner. I must look for that seasoning!!
He is the best! The seasoning is great on all kinds of fish or meat, I haven’t had it on chicken but I bet that would be good too!
I’m a shrimp strumpet. Give me shrimp with anything and I’m the happiest woman in the world, so thanks for this!
Oh enjoy Jeanie, all these recipes are so easy!
