I do apologize for the late response in regards to this simple recipe . I marinate the shrimp, onions, garlic and bell pepper in the marinate for 30 min. I would recommend using half teaspoon . Very spicy ! I did also use other spices such as paprika, black pepper, sazon . Then I cooked in a pan skillet until shrimp is cook and veggies tender. Then I removed all shrimp & veggies in a separate plate then added your choice of Alfredo jar sauce or whipping cream. I used for this jar Alfredo. I brought liquid to medium boil to thicken sauce , I added in grated parm cheese and shredded mozzarella to thicken sauce. I then added pasta and the cook shrimp back into pan . Lastly garnish with green scallions
