Ok, I admit it.  I have this crazy love of seafood in a creamy white wine and Gruyere cheese sauce, so pasta with shrimp in this sauce is just perfect.  I don’t know how may times I have gone to create a “new” seafood dish that as I have added a little of this and a little of that I realized I was coming up with a very similar recipe to this.  It is just so good that I can’t help it.  I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

    This looks delish…but when do you add the Panko bread crumbs? I did not see this listed?

    1. Hi Stacey, I didn’t post this recipe, a contributor to our site did, however I imagine the panko is to be added as a topping to add texture at the very end. I personally would brown the panko a bit in the oven and then top the pasta with it. Hope that helps.

  2. G’day! HOW good does this look…YUM, true!
    Wish I could come through the screen and try some now too!
    Cheers! Joanne
