SHRIMP LIMONE (Similar to Zio's)
Source: Shoulda been a chef, 4/9/09
"Zio's Italian Restaurant in Olathe, KS...one of my all-time favorite Italian restaurants (and even one of my first employers, from my high school days!) I always order one of two things: Spaghetti with meat sauce and alfredo (trust me, it's a-MA-zing) or a super delicious dish called "Shrimp Limone."
I am proud to say that I have artfully mastered - yes, nearly mastered! - this dish to the point of tasting nearly identical to the restaurant. My first attempt was in college and while it was good, I didn't quite understand the principle of creating good cream sauces. Practice makes perfect, right?
I guesstimated the proportions listed below, and every time it's even better and closer to the real thing."
2 TBSP butter
2 TBSP flour
1 pint half & half (2% milk will work, too)
salt, pepper, oregano
2 TBSP lemon juice
1-2 TBSP olive oil
1-2 cloves garlic, minced
8 oz sliced mushrooms
1 can artichoke hearts, drained
2 Roma or plum tomatoes, chopped
frozen cooked shrimp, thawed
Angel hair pasta (for serving)
In saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add flour, and whisk for 1 minute. Add half & half, and raise heat until sauce is boiling. Reduce to a simmer, and continue to whisk to remove lumps. Add salt, pepper, oregano and lemon juice. Adjust/add seasonings to taste.
In large skillet, saute garlic in olive oil. Add mushrooms and cook until tender. Add artichoke hearts, tomatoes, shrimp, and cream sauce to pan. Cook all until heated through.
Boil angel hair pasta as directed. Serve shrimp mixture over angel hair.
