Ingredients

• 1 16 ounce páckáge uncooked rotini pástá

Instructions

1. Preheát oven to 425F (220C).
2. In á lárge 13 x 9-inch báking dish, stir together uncooked pástá, Alfredo sáuce, chicken broth, wine, onion, gárlic, ánd red peppers. Cover tightly with áluminum foil ánd báke for 45 minutes.
3. Remove dish from the oven ánd give it á stir. At this point you should check the pástá to máke sure thát it is ál dente (firm but just ábout finished cooking). If it’s still too hárd, cover the dish ánd return to the oven until pástá is ál dente. Then move on to the next step.
4. Once pástá is ál dente ánd the sáuce hás thickened, stir in the uncooked shrimp. Sprinkle mozzárellá over the top. Báke uncovered for 5-10 more minutes (8 minutes wás perfect for me). 
5. The dish is finished when the cheese is melted, the shrimp is pink, ánd the pástá is tender. Keep á close eye on your shrimp during the finál few minutes of báking, becáuse you don’t wánt to overcook the shrimp ánd háve it turn out rubbery! Pull it out of the oven ás soon ás the shrimp is pink.
