Cooking Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the ziti until al dente, about 8-10 minutes, then drain and set aside.
- In an oven-safe skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat, then sauté finely chopped shallots, minced garlic, and parsley for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the shrimp to the skillet, cooking for about 2 minutes on each side or until they turn pink and opaque. Transfer the shrimp to a plate, leaving juices in the skillet.
- In the same skillet, melt the remaining tablespoon of butter and sprinkle in the all-purpose flour. Cook for 1 minute to create a roux.
- Gradually whisk in the milk, white wine, and chicken stock, heating until a gentle simmer thickens the mixture over 3 minutes.
- Stir in half the mozzarella and parmesan, along with Italian seasoning and red pepper flakes, and season with salt and pepper until melted and smooth.
- Return the shrimp, ziti, and chopped tomatoes to the skillet, folding until well combined.
- Sprinkle remaining mozzarella and parmesan on top, then bake for 10-15 minutes until bubbly and golden brown. Let rest before serving.
