I always prefer seafood over meat, and so does my husband. He actually loves fishing, and every chance he gets, he is trying to catch something for dinner. We are staying away from the farmed seafood, since it contains many harmful pollutants. So, while checking my local Sam's Club for wild-caught shrimp, I found this Wild Caught Argentinian Red Shrimp.

Besides that beautiful, natural red color, these shrimps have a lot to offer:

  • Great flavor and texture
  • No added antibiotics or growth hormones
  • High in Omega-3 fats
  • Lower sodium levels

If you ever get a chance to try Wild Caught Argentine Shrimp by Marina Del Ray, you will not be disappointed. Visit Marina Del Ray's website to find out more about who they are and what they do.

Now, when you have some great, wild-caught shrimp on hand, LET'S START COOKING!

HOW TO MAKE SHRIMP FETTUCCINE:

1.  Prepare the ingredients:

– Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook the fettuccine according to the package instructions. Drain, rinse with cold water, and set aside.

– Meanwhile, place the roasted peppers together with the liquid from the jar into a food processor or bullet blender and puree until smooth.

2.  Heat up a large, non-stick pan. Add butter, shrimp, paprika, and red pepper flakes and cook for 3-4 minutes on high heat. Add salt and garlic, and cook for 1 more minute.

    Fantastic meal with outstanding flavor. It will become one of my favorites!

    Local stores only carry 12 oz jars of peppers so I used 2 jars. Turned out great but a bit watery. In hindsite I will only 1 jar next time.

    Hello!! I was unable to find roasted bell pepper sauce in my local grocery store. Do you by any chance have a recipe as to how I could make my own sauce? Thank you for the recipe, can’t wait to try!

    This was really good! Looked interesting with roasted red pepper sauce instead of tomatoes. Simple and fast to put together. Had to add a little chicken broth because there wasn’t a lot of sauce and it was a little thick. But overall was an excellent tasting recipe. It paired beautifully with shrimp. Thanks for sharing a new recipe for red sauce. I will be making this again.

      Thanks, Diane! I actually created this sauce by accident, but it has been a huge hit in my family. I've made many recipes with similar sauce since then. 🙂
