- Place a 12 inches saute or sauce pan on medium-low heat. Add the olive oil, and melt the butter.
- While that happens, but the shrimp in a bowl and season with half of the Essence(or spice blend), mix well, add a pinch of salt, and put in the pan.
- Turn the heat to Medium-High, and saute each side of the shrimp until fully cooked. Once cooked, put the shrimp in a bowl and set aside.
- Add a dash more of olive oil, and put in the green chillis and garlic. Once garlic is fragrant, add the carrots, zuchinni, and shallots. Once all the vegitables START to caramlize, add in all the heavy cream. Reduce heat to medium-low.
- Let the cream reduce, until thick.
- Drain the pasta if done.
- Put the shrimp back in the pan followed by the crushed/diced tomatoes. Start mildly braking apart the tomatoes. Add more salt and pepper(taste it to usure perfection :D).
- Then put the spaggetti in the pan. Mix well and let it simmer for 5 minutes. Add in the Basil and Oregano and Chilli Powder. Mix Well. Remove from heat, and add cilantro and parmesan. Serve Hot and Watch Your Family ATTACK!
