Crispy shrimp pasta – the best shrimp pasta ever with rich creamy sauce and cajun-seasoned crispy fried shrimp.
Cook pasta according to the package instructions. Sprinkle the shrimp with salt, black pepper, toss to combine well. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of flour over the shrimp, and toss to coat the shrimp. Sprinkle 1 more tablespoon flour and toss to evenly coat the shrimp.
Melt butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. When hot, add the shrimp in a single layer and cook on each side, flipping once, until golden brown, approximately 2-3 minutes per side. Remove to plate.
Pour in the chicken broth. Cook for about 5 minutes, whisking the bottom of the pan to deglaze. Reduce heat to medium and pour in cream, whisking constantly. Cook sauce over medium heat until bubbly and the cream starts to thicken the mixture, about 5 minutes. Taste the sauce and add the more salt, black pepper, and cajun seasoning to taste.
