This was a fun and interesting treat. I didn't have any orecchiette but loved this recipe so much that I went out and bought some to try it again!

This was good and went over well at a potluck the other night but the Cajun spice that I bought just didn't have any kick to it. I used 3tsp (doubled recipe) and couldn't taste it. I added 2 tsp of cayenne pepper and 1 tsp of chili pepper to get it where I thought it should be. I couldn't find the orecchiette pasta so I used shells instead. I also used frozen shrimp that was thawed in cold water and added at the last. One more thing, add more of the spinach. I used a whole salad bag for a double batch.

We love this one! This was a fancy restaurant quality dish for sure. The only change I made was to use a can of diced tomatoes and I went heavy on the garlic.

It was a good dish. wasnt too hard or complicated. The one thing that threw me off being a young cook(for myself) here was the picture. Thats not Orecchiette(ear looking) noodles. Good dish though!!

Very good! Fast and easy, a great weeknight dinner. I added more spinach because we love it, and the amount didn't seem like quite enough. Nice, spicy dish, just the way we like it! I served it with parmesan cheese on top. Thanks!

A fantastic dish. I loved the flavors it was light and delicious. I made the mistake of using frozen shrimp. This can be chewy. Definatly use fresh when you can. I love the flavor of the oreccheitte pasta. I buy delallo pasta as it is the only one I can get that is orecchiette in my local market but it has great flavor. I never thought it made a difference with what pasta I bought but it does.

This was a very tasty dish! I doubled up on the sauce ingredients to make more (I love tomatoes) and served it with fresh garlic bread. Yummy!

Too much pepper? Here's whatcha do! I should have listened to my instinct when it told me not to put the full amount of pepper in and to just begin with half that amount and taste it. The pepper ended up overpowering every other flavor in the dish. I saved the dish by making a cream sauce consisting of 2 tablespoons butter, 1/2 cup cream cheese, 1/4 cup milk, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp parsley. I melted them all together, adding the milk slowly, until it was a nice, thick cream. Then I reheated the pasta in the pan and stirred in the cream sauce. Voila! Another tip: Definitely increase the spinach by about a cup. I gave this recipe four stars despite the pepper problem because I should have known better to begin with.

This was excellent. I didn't add quite as much butter or wine as it called for and it was still very flavorful.

Very good and easy to make dish. I thought it needed a little more spice so I added red pepper flakes to my plate but, left everyone elses alone. I was a little worried about the 1 cup wine because it had a really strong smell but, the wine did not overpower like I thought it would.

LOVED this recipe! We do add some mushrooms and some red pepper flakes as well. We love it hot! This is a much healthier option for us over the Cajun Chicken Pasta on this site that is made with cream. It's very tasty and I love the fresh spinach in this dish. Fantastic!

My family really liked this recipe. I could not find the pasta listed in the recipe so I subbed with tri-color fiori. I added a splash of EVOO, minced vidalia in place of shallots, and added about 1/4 cup freshly grated asiago and parmesan cheese just before serving. I'm not a seafood fan, so I saved a small amount of pasta and tossed with grilled chicken.

This recipe turned out great! Made a few changes though because we like things a bit more spicy...made the recipe with 4 cloves of garlic and added more Cajun seasoning (2 tsp). Also added some red pepper flakes. I used a few more plum tomatoes to make more sauce so I had about 1.5 cups. I used olive oil rather than butter too. Highly recommend for a nice refreshing dinner. Husband and husband's friend raved!!

Delicious! After adding the spinach, I thought the sauce was quite thin, so I thickened with about 3/4 cup of marinara and a slurry (2 T of cornstarch mixed w/ 2T of water). Before serving, I topped with green onions & feta and enjoyed with a salad, bread and white wine. Truly fantastic dinner... thanks so much, submitter!
