Servings: persons

1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined, without tails
2 tablespoons tony's creole seasoning
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons butter
8 ounces sliced mushrooms
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 cup tomatoes, diced, I used fresh from the garden
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup parmesan cheese, grated
1 egg yolk
1 cup onion, diced, divided
8 ounces linguine
1/2 - 1 tablespoon tony's creole seasoning

1
Get all of your ingredients ready, tomatoes diced, onion diced and so forth because the recipe goes together fast once the shrimp is cooked.
2
Toss the shrimp in 1 tablespoon of the Creole Seasoning, set aside.
3
Fill a pan with water adding salt to season the pasta. When water boils add pasta and cook until al dente.
4
While pasta is cooking, heat a skillet with the olive oil and butter inside. Add the mushrooms and garlic powder when the butter has melted, cook for about 1 to 2 minutes, next add 1/2 cup of the onions and cook for another minute then add the shrimp. Cook for about 3 to 5 minutes or until the shrimp turns pink.
5
When the shrimp has cooked add the cream and the other addition of Creole Seasoning (the 1/2 to 1 T). Bring this to a simmer then turn the heat down to medium low.
6
Add the cheese, egg yolk, and the tomatoes. Heat until the sauce thickens. The heat needs to be low to keep the egg from curdling.
7
When the sauce has thickened add the other 1/2 cup of onions and the drained pasta. Toss unil the pasta is coated. Garnish with extra diced tomatoes and cheese if desired.
