Chesapeake Bay Pasta Chicken and Shrimp

Recipes »  Main Dish  »  Main Dish - Other

Quick and easy to prepare and tastes great (better than you may think from reading the recipe)

"Yeah, it's me again, but I needed to update my review.

This dish is still not only one of my favorites, because of major hurricane damage (Wilma) to my home, the only thing left of my kitchen was the fridge. I was able to make this dish start to finish on a two burner hot plate. Took a little longer (not much, but the pasta took longer), and it came out just as good as on the stove.

And yes, I do now add the Old Bay to the cream mixture.

    Wow.. was this a surprise!!! I LOVE it!!

    I did leave out the Old Bay called for in the cream mixture. Thought it might be too much, but now I'm thinking it might have been just fine. In any event, I really enjoyed this and would not hesitate to make it again.
