Creamy Seafood And Cheese Tortellini Recipe

Add Step-by-Step Photos	Justjakesmom / All my dishes 6 months, 1 week ago Came up with this Saturday night craving something decadent and creamy using my leftover salmon. Turned out pretty good, if I say so myself! LOL Not as fattening as it tastes, but definitely not for the strict diet conscious (maybe a small portion - tehe)...

Ingredients

About 2 Tbls. olive oil and/or butter combo

McCormack's Roasted garlic and red bell pepper seasoning - just shake it in till happy

1/2 cup chopped sweet onion (or whatever you like)

1/2 cup (approx) cup milk or chicken broth (I used 1/4 cup broth cuz I had it leftover)

8 oz. (approx) Light sour cream

Dill weed - 1 tsp.- more or less (didn't measure, just shook and tasted)

Dried tarragon - 1 tsp - "

Raw peeled deveined shrimp (about 20 - 25 / size 51-60 per lb.)

Old Bay seasoning - approx. 1 tsp (or to taste)

Cooked salmon filet (could be raw, I just had about 10 oz. cooked leftover filet)

Three-cheese stuffed tortellini - cooked according to directions - I used about 20

Directions

Thaw shrimp if frozen (mine was) set aside

Start water boiling for tortellini - cook when ready

Meanwhile, heat olive oil/butter in large non-stick pan

Add garlic/bell pepper seasoning (if you like fresh, use it, I just happen to find this convenient)

Add onions and cook, stirring until translucent

Here is where I sprinkle in some Wondra flour (just a little bit so the sauce will thicken)

Slowly add 1/4 cup or so of broth or milk, stirring till worked in (rest is for after all ingred. are added and you want to make it thinner)

Add sour cream and dill weed, tarragon, and Old Bay

Add cold cooked salmon broken into pieces (or raw if that's what you're using)

When tortellini is about 5 minutes from being done, add shrimp and stir occasionally till done

*The shrimp don't take long to cook - Add strained tortellini when done to mix

Add more broth or milk for a thinner consistency

Simmer together for a couple minutes - serve immediately

The entire meal can be done in 15 minutes or less, but looks like you slaved over it!

Served ours with petite peas, but would be great with a green salad.
