Drunken Shrimp Or Chicken Or Crawfish Pasta

Description

Wow! Enough said.
Actually, this is the most incredible creamy pasta dish ever created. It's courtesy of chef gus martin, from dickie brennan's palace cafe in new orleans. Better drink some red wine with this to combat the clogging arteries, though. It's well worth all the effort, you will be hailed a hero!
To make with chicken or crawfish, just substitute same amount for the shrimp. For the creole seasonings we use recipe #22089.
