How to make creamy pasta with shrimp? In this video, we show you step-by-step how to make Penne al Pomodoro Cremoso e Gamberi, prepared with tomato sauce, cream, and a touch of lemon. The shrimp are cooked quickly over high heat to preserve their texture. The mild acidity of the tomato, the creaminess of the cream, and the refreshing touch of lemon zest create a balanced sauce.

The ridged surface and hollow interior of Makaroma Penne Rigate ensure that this rich sauce is evenly distributed throughout the pasta.
