Take advantage of premade alfredo sauce with this quick and delicious meal. Just add shrimp, pasta, lemon zest, and a little parsley to complete the dish. Lemon zest adds a bit of vibrancy to packaged alfredo Sauce and we think that citrus and shellfish always work well together. This recipe can easily be adapted for chicken alfredo by replacing the shrimp with vacuum-sealed chicken breasts. You can easily double this recipe to serve 4 people.

Is this recipe for the first edition suvie? I tried this with the starch cooker and the noodles were undercooked and the instructions recommend using short grain pasta.
Hi Marcus, yes this recipe is written for 1.0. We will be updating most of our 1.0 recipes to be compatible with 2.0 and the Suvie Starch Cooker in the coming months.
