Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large pot, bring salted water to a rolling boil over high heat. Add fettuccine or spaghetti and cook according to package instructions until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain the pasta and set aside, reserving a cup of the pasta water for later use if needed.
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and translucent.
- Stir in the sliced red bell pepper and cook for another 2 minutes. Add the large shrimp, stirring frequently for 3-4 minutes until they turn pink and opaque.
- Lower the heat to medium-low and sprinkle in the Jamaican jerk seasoning. Pour in the coconut milk and heavy cream, mixing well and letting it simmer gently for about 5 minutes.
- Gently add the drained pasta to the skillet, tossing to coat thoroughly in the creamy sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, adding reserved pasta water if needed.
- Adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper to taste, and fold in the chopped fresh parsley. Serve hot, garnished with lime wedges and grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
