Pappardelle alla Martina: Did I make this better than Stanley Tucci?

Pappardelle alla Martina (or pasta alla martina) is a light and flavorful dish with thick pappardelle pasta and sauteed fresh shrimp, vegetables, basil, and white wine. This dish became a viral sensation thanks to actor Stanley Tucci, who has a strong passion for Italy and Italian food that could rival Vincenzo! The only problem is that when Stanley made his version, he mentioned the ingredients and not the recipe!  “Mamma mia!” I've taken these simple ingredients and interpreted the dish my way to show you how easy it is to transform just a few items into a scrumptious meal. 💯 Follow this link to read and print the written recipe: https://www.vincenzosplate.com/pappardelle-alla-martina/ #stanleytucci #pasta #vincenzosplate =============================================== INGREDIENTS: 250 g Pappardelle pasta 9 oz 250 g Fresh shrimps 9 oz. or prawns 250 g Cherry tomatoes 9 oz. cut in half 240 g Peas 1 cup 1 bunch asparagus approx 6 stalks, cut into 1-inch pieces 2 garlic cloves crushed Fresh basil small handful 3-4 Tbsp White wine of choice Extra virgin olive oil EVOO Salt and pepper as much as required 1 lemon halved METHOD: For the vegetables and shrimps: 1. Start by bringing the chopped asparagus and peas to boil in a medium sized pot for about 5 minutes, or until tender and vibrant green. Then, scoop them out with a mesh strainer and set them aside in a bowl. 2. Now, place your pan on the stove at a medium heat and add approx 5 Tbsp of EVOO to the pan. 3. Once this is heated, add the crushed garlic and sliced cherry tomatoes. Cook for about 4 minutes or until the cherry tomatoes start to soften. Add a few splashes (about 1-2 Tbsp) of water to keep the garlic from burning. 4. After 5 minutes, add the shrimp (or prawns), 3-4 Tbsp wine and the cooked peas and asparagus to the pan. 5. Cook for 3 minutes or until the shrimp is ready. 6. While everything is sauteing, add a generous amount of salt and pepper — remember don’t add the basil yet! 7. Once everything is cooked, remove the pan from the heat and set aside. 8. Squeeze the lemon into the pan just before it’s time to add the pasta. For the pasta: 1. Bring the water in your large pot to a boil and add 1 Tbsp of salt. 2. Add the pasta and cook for about 10 minutes (or the time noted on the packet instructions). 3. Before it is time to strain the pasta, collect half a ug of pasta water and set aside. Bringing it all together: 1. Add the pasta to your pan with the rest of the ingredients and toss. 2. Then, add the pasta water and toss once more. 3. Once the water has helped to create a creamy sauce, break the basil apart from the stems leaving the leaves intact, and add them to the pan. Gently combine. HOW TO SERVE: Pappardelle alla Martina is easy to serve as all the ingredients are tossed together in the end. All you have to do is take your kitchen tongs and put as much as you want on the plate. Then, top the dish off with a basil leaf to garnish and a light drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. But please, don’t add cheese! =============================================== 📺SUBSCRIBE TO MY YOUTUBE CHANNEL (IT’S FREEEEEE ;-) http://bit.ly/SubscribeToMyYOUTUBEchannel Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcsSowAamCLJv-xeF9geXoA/join 🕴Here is the link to Buy my Merch (and the No Pineapple on Pizza T-shirt): https://www.vincenzosplatestore.com/ 📖Share it with your FOODIE friends on FACEBOOK 🍝Check out my website to get more recipes http://vincenzosplate.com/ 🌍Join my Small Group Private Italian Tour and discover the secret gems of Italy with me.
