Cooking Guide

3. Sauté shrimp 2-3 mins in the same pan you used for the prosciutto and season with salt & pepper.  Reserve shrimp on a plate.  

4. Add butter to the same sauté pan and whisk while adding 2 cups of LBR supreme sauce.  Continue to whisk and add 1/4 cup Parmesan and 1/2 cup reserved pasta water.  Continue whisking until smooth.  

5. Add cooked pasta and toss until warmed (add more reserved pasta water if too thick)

6. Toss until pasta is completely coated and plate with shrimp on top and a garnish of remaining Parmesan and top with crispy prosciutto.
