One Pot Thai Shrimp Pasta – Creamy Thai shrimp pasta all cooked in one pot.
St. Patrick’s Day is over, and now we have about a month until Easter. I haven’t really thought about any Easter ideas to share with you. Do you have any requests? We usually have ham and potatoes for Easter, the only thing that ever changes is the dessert. And sometimes it just gets skipped because of all the candy that is around. So if you want any ideas, let me know, so I can start working on them for you!
In the meantime, I am here with an amazing one pot dinner. An Italian version of this One-Pot Pasta has been making the rounds on the internet lately. It has been done enough, I wanted to do an Asian version. The concept is pretty crazy.
You put the liquid, the pasta, and all the other add-ins together in one pot. Then you just cover, bring to a boil, and cook for about 10 minutes. The pasta absorbs all the liquid as it cooks, and it comes out perfectly cooked with a creamy sauce. Kind of magical really. So I made my own One Pot Thai Shrimp Pasta version.
You do have to be a little careful what kind of pasta you use. They all cook at different times, so you will want to use linguini or spaghetti or something else that cooks in about 10 minutes. For this one pot Thai shrimp pasta version I added peanut butter, soy sauce, ginger, and a few other typical Asian ingredients.
I was a little nervous about the shrimp, but it worked out beautifully. The dish was creamy, with lots of great flavor, and the shrimp was perfectly cooked. I can not wait to try this again! Dinner is ready in about 15 minutes, what more can you ask for on a busy night.

This recipe sounds GREAT, and so easy! Question — I don’t care much for the taste of peanut butter. Does the finished dish taste a lot like it? I can imagine the PB adds to the lovely finished consistency. Maybe you can suggest an alternate ingredient? Many thanks!!
Erin S says
You get a hint of PB flavor, but it is not what you think of when you think of traditional PB. You could try SunButter or maybe Almond Butter in its place, but I am not 100% sure what it would do to the taste. I am sure it would be good, just not exactly the same. Let me know what you try!

I love everything about this meal…can’t wait to make it! Pinned! 🙂
Tamara says
Do you think you could make this with chicken? I’m not the biggest fan of shrimp…
Erin S says
You definitely could! I think if you cut your chicken into small enough pieces, the cook time and instructions would be the same. Just check that the chicken is fully cooked before serving. Enjoy!
