So I just made this pasta and... Omg this was the bomb!! I cannot tell you how many recipes I have tried and just couldn't hit the spot but this!! This right here is AMAZING! I just want to eat the whole pot! Lol will be trying more of your delicious recipes!
Keandra Davis Thank you soo much. I wish i could make this comment one of my top comments!!!!! It really makes me happy!!!! I remember when i made this pasta. I literally ate the whole pot lol.
Notice how Charlie didn't add any oil to his boiling noodles, very smart. people love adding oil, turns out it just makes your sauce slide off the noodles. the ending result was perfect
Leonard Gadson- Sorry if you feel that way. My condolences. :) Remember there's other channels you can watch besides mines! Thank you for your comment!:)
Leonard Gadson Sorry if you feel that way. My condolences. :) Remember there's other channels you can watch besides mines! Thank you for you comment!:)
Thank you Charlie for taking the time to video, cook, teach, edit & then post. Your videos have helped me in many ways. My family will be getting this tomorrow. I was struggling on what to cook and this recipe came up. I have most of the ingredients. My husband and his mother are from Louisiana however I'm a California gal. You take such care and I love how you explain why you do what do while cooking. I'm learning and becoming a better cook. I love how you seem to stay true to LA cooking and share. Keep em coming!
Milinda Andrews You're welcome! Happy to hear that I am helping you. Thanks for all the compliments! Appreciate it! oh okay cool. Seems like there's a lot of people out there that have some kinda connection to New Orleans. Let me know the results when you're done!
Hey there! Happy to hear that the Shrimp pasta was successful and that everyone enjoyed it. Wow, that's cool. Good sign when they hit the table. lol Thanks for leaving feedback!

Happy to hear that the Shrimp pasta was successful and that you enjoyed it. You're welcome, not a problem. Thanks so much for the donation and for leaving feedback!!
i made this for Christmas and when i tell you it wasn't a noodle left!! they ate it all...i added crushed red pepper tho and more cheeses! but thank yoooou!!!
I love watching your channels I learn different types of recipes and will be attending college and don't have to worry about eating out when I can look up a recipe here and cook lol thank you!!
The women love me now cause of you Charlie..big shout from Baltimore. Most of my fam is from Louisiana it's a blessing to be able to share my childhood meals with people. Appreciate it
That is really good to hear bro! Cool that's what's up. I'm surprised you not from Louisiana yourself. Not a problem bro glad I was able to help. Thanks for leaving feedback!
Charlie thank you so much I made this for my family tonight and my husband wants to marry me again lol thank you btw I’m new here can’t wait to try some more recipes ❤
I made this a few days ago. It was fantastic! Using fresh shrimp makes a real difference! I made a small modification: after I finished the step where the shrimp are sautéed with the onions, tomatos and spices, I added about a 1/3 cup of white wine and reduced for about 5 min before continuing with cooking. Thank you for the easy to follow recipe!
Awesome. I'm happy to hear that the shrimp pasta was successful and that you enjoyed it. You're welcome, not a problem. Thanks for leaving feedback! :)
I worked in a seafood restaurant, on the Northshore, that served pan toasted Reising's French Bread with the seafood pasta. It was so delicious with the sauce that we had requests for seconds on the bread. Split the loaf and cut into serving size pieces and butter each piece. In an iron skillet, toast butter side down until browned and the crust starts to crinkle from the heat. As it cools it gets crispy and delicious. I just about can't eat the pasta sauce without it. Deli french bread is not the same. Only Reising's or possibly Lidenheimer. I love your cooking!
Ohh okay cool. I'm quite sure that the seafood pasta was good if people requesting to have seconds lol Sounds good though! I'll have to look them up because I've never heard of them before! Thanks a lot! Glad that you are enjoying my videos!
Made this and it was very good.. Charlie man I am taking credit for your dishes. Like you said to the one guy that was rather rude you can tailor it to your taste and liking. Heck you can even add to the ingredients or take away but you gave a foundation. Me myself I like to sautee my shrimp for 2 mins then add them back for 5 mins only cause they can get tough but people should figure out how they like their food. Keep up the good work and keep cooking cause I am taking credit for your recipes man. As for Leonard man you took the high road he sound plain ignorant. You can critique someone with respect, something he needs to learn.. Last time I checked he is on your page and you were not on his.
+Maxx JAX Awesome! Glad that it came out good! Okay cool. Well take the credit. I have no problem with that! :) Yes you know people are going to say what they want to say on here! I don't bother with it too much anymore! lol Thank you! Yes I will keep up with the good work starting with my newest video that I'll be working on soon! Ohh i remember Leonard lol Like i said you can't please everyone! LOL Right i agree with you!
Soooo happy I stumbled onto you here on CZcams! My dad's family is from Louisiana and can't wait to start trying your fabulous recipes!!!!! What a sweet soul you are.
Hi Charlie, just wanted to say that I love your cooking shows! Ive saved some of your recipes to my favourites list haha. Youre such a humble person thankyou for sharing with us, looking forward to more of your delicious recipes:)
+Tina K Thank you! I appreciate that! Yes that's no problem! I like that! So cool! :) Thanks! I appreciate the compliments! Yes be looking forward to more delicious recipes coming soon! :)
I have watched this about 3 times! That's it, I can't take it no more! I'm going to buy the ingredients now and cook this today😛. Very very good job Charlie👍🏾. New subscriber here.
Wow! You really must like this video to watch it 3 times! Yeah go ahead and buy the ingredients and let me know the results when you make it! Thank you so much for Subscribing! :)
My brother’s mother in law is from New Orleans and she sounds is exactly like you. She says “ok” a lot too! Love it and y’all do know how to cook in New Orleans!
Hello there! In some of my older videos, I do say okay a lot. I've worked on that with my newer videos and I don't say okay anymore. Happy to hear that you enjoyed the video!
Do you make stuffed shrimp? My husband was there for an Administrative conference and he ranted and raved about the stuffed shrimp there. You food makes me hungry.
Never made stuffed shrimp but I'm sure it would be great addition to my channel! The stuffed shrimp is really good though. I just had it like 4 days ago lol Sorry if I'm making you hungry!
Hey i had a feeling you was from New Orleans I'm from their to and i love lots of flavor when i cook and i will be making everything you made believe that.. But love you and God bless :)
Today's dinner is Pasta It's 2:15am in the morning. Thinking about what I was going to cook. I have always use bottle alfredo sauce. Can I add different meats to this pasta, (example: crab meat, crawfish and lobster.. I will let you know how it came out. I will call it a seafood pasta. Thanks for teaching me on how to make the sauce. Do you have a reciepe for Kabobs.
Wow you're up pretty late lol Nothing like making your own pasta sauce from scratch. It's healthier. Yes you can add crab meat, lobster etc. Let me know the results when you're done! You're welcome! Glad that i was able to help! Unfortunately I don't have a recipe for Kabobs. Sorry.
Charlie,First I would like to thank you sincerely for your unselfish efforts to provide us with your classy, southern, down home, New Orleans cuisine. I am most thankful for your efforts to give us a flavor of "how mama used to do it." You have made my 81 year old parents so happy, because I am now able to prepare meals for them that bring back those fond memories of the aromas and flavors that we grew up with. We are all Houstonians now, and you have created the vehicle to allow me to bring New Orleans to my parents' kitchen in Houston. I am so thankful I recently found your U-tube presentations.Second, I wanted to comment on the "New Orleans Shrimp Pasta" recipe. I followed your recipe on last week with a few minor tweeks to accommodate my parents' medical concerns. I have to be very careful with their intake of certain spices. Nevertheless, they were ever so pleased with the final product. In fact, I have literally replaced my "New Orleans Shrimp Pasta" recipe with yours, but I publicly give you all of the credit.Third, I was hoping to find a boiled crawfish recipe in your tool box but it appears as though you stick to indoor recipes. However, I would be happy to share my recipe with you if you desire. Just email me directly if you are interested. That is another favorite of my parents. They have remarked that my boiled crawfish is the absolute best they ever had.Finally, I wanted share with you that you have me laughing my but off with two things that you either do or say during your presentations. The first is during your introduction you often say, "Some people use thyme, paprika, and all that stuff. No, we don't do all that stuff down here!!!!! Right here is all you gonna need ok!!!!!!!!" The second, which I think is your signature, is when you are testing the final product. In some of your presentations, you point that index finger towards the camera as if to say "wait a minute" the you lift your right thumb up and pound on the table once and in a loud voice say, "Whoooooooooooooooooa, that taste good!!!!! And there you have it folks. New Orleans Shrimp Pasta by Charlie." I'm telling you I can be seen cracking my side laughing.In close, I know I'm a little wordy but you really don't know how much you have blessed me with the tools to return blessings to my parents in ways that I could never have done without your assistance. Thanks so much and may God continue to bless you as you use your talents to do his divine will. If I can ever help you in any way please don't hesitate to reach out.Respectfully,Patrick
Thanks so much Patrick my fellow New Orleans native for the compliments! I am happy to hear that I am able to help you bring New Orleans food to your family's table in Houston! It really feels good knowing that! Don't feel bad! I used to be an Houstonian a few years back right after Katrina. After 9 months I returned back home lol Glad that you all enjoyed the shrimp pasta! Wow that is a huge compliment to replace your own recipe with mines. That is amazing. Just shows how good the recipe really is! I currently do not have a crawfish boil recipe out! It would be difficult for me to create that. I would have to get the tools etc to boil the crawfish and that by itself is quite a bit of money. Next you have the crawfish themselves which is also expensive! Hopefully one day I can create a video on the boiled crawfish. Yes most of the things I say in my presentations about how people be putting tomatoes and carrots in their stuffed bell peppers. We don't put that in our food lol That's not how we rock in New Orleans. LOL Also everyone loves the end part. I think it is imperative to let the audience know how the results of the food example texture and taste. You've seen the presentation already now It's gotta get a rating and that's where the table bangs come in at. The shrimp pasta video was the beginning of the table bangs. Everyone loved it and the rest is history! Again I am so happy to hear that I've helped you and your family in your kitchen one New Orleans recipe at a time. :)
well Charlie bear I am officially Queen cook in this castle 🏰 thanks to you. I prepared this dish for dinner last night and it was a absolute hit out of the ball park baby. Thank you Thank you Thank you kisses 😍😘
Okay, Charlie! I am a HUGE fan of yours! Everything that you have made looks SO yummy! My parents are from Louisiana, and I just knew I had all the recipes! Your recipes are very similar to my peeps, just a few differences. Thank you for sharing! Just a quick question: Who inspired you to cook? Be blessed! XO
+Houston Girl Thank you! Oh okay cool. I'm starting to get a lot of people that are from Louisiana or their families are from Louisiana to comment on my videos more! Cool Cool. You're welcome! I appreciate you taking the time to comment! To answer your question I can't really say who inspired me to cook because I've always tried to cook for myself ever since I was a little boy. Now I did learn a few things from my grandmother, aunt and uncle.
I'm so mad I'm just finding your channel! This is THE BEST shrimp pasta recipe I've found. I'm also a New Orleans native but moved to California 20 years ago. When I'm feeling homesick I cook NOLA comfort food! Your channel covers all of the classics. THANK YOU for sharing all of these great NOLA recipes!
Charlie Andrews yeah ya right! I visit home 2-3 times a year and it's still not enough! With all your delicious recipes I can have a little taste of home 😁
Hey Judith!!!!! This is not an Etouffee! :) Sorry! It resembles alittle bit of a shrimp Alfredo pasta!!!! It is good! :D Thank you so much for your comment!!!! :D
thanks for the particular video..Im going to try it on Sunday with corn on the cobb, green beans and garlic bread..You know you have a very nice cool layed back voice almost patient like..You have gift for cooking..
You're Welcome Octavia!!!! I try my best. Yes people say that i have a lil passion for cooking. Great! Use more shrimp by increasing it to 4 or 5 pounds! Oh that sounds good, Corn on the cobb with green beans. Yummy! Let me know how it turns out. It should be very good!!!!
Charlie I am sooo glad I found a cook from the N.O. I am mom/ wife that does not cook, but love to learn.Your video was easy to follow so easy that basically my 11 year old cooked the pasta. Although I couldn't find fresh basil that wasn't bad in three different stores my family enjoyed the pasta. I was so proud of this dish that I stayed up late looking for my next dish...it will be stuff baked potato. ...thanks!!!!
Nikki Washi35 WHATTTTT???? YOU don't cook? Wow! Well it's a good thing that you want to learn. Wow an 11 year old cooked the pasta! Cool! Very nice! :) Yikes yes I know first hand how finding ingredients is. Sometimes you have to travel all over the city for one ingredient lol Yes I'm happy that you're family enjoyed the pasta and that it was a success! Very Proud of ya'll. Oh yes the baked potato is very good! :) Everyone loves that one! :) Let me know the results when you're done!
I tried this pasta recipe for Christmas (I wanted to try a different pasta dish from baked macaroni this year). I was a little hesitant at first because I'm not a big fan of angel hair noodles but I used it anyway it tasted SO GOOD! Everybody loved it, including myself. I was asked to make more lol. Thank you for sharing! The recipe was amazing as usual❤
That's understandable. I'm happy to hear that the shrimp pasta was successful and that everyone enjoyed it. That's a good sign. lol You're welcome, not a problem. Thanks for leaving feedback!!
mmmmm i had forgot about them 6 shrimp. i bet you i won't forget again lmao hey! you are so fit how do you stay in shape from all that good eating? lemme get off your channel for i bit my fingers off lol.
+Charlie “The Cook” Andrews I FOUND IT! the baked twice potatoe mmm you stole my stomach and my heart with this one lmao. if I could find a man that could throw down like you I'd leave this world in peace hahaha
This video was created over 2 years ago sir. I'm quite sure that I cut my nails since then. lol I used to be a compulsive nail biter and I'm not going back to that....
Cynthia Baker i know that's right 😂😂😂😂😂 i already know how to cook southern food ... this young man is cooking his butt off.Everyone has their own way of cooking! I love that he's from Louisiana i learning how to cook that!!! Okayyyyy, love Charlie's accent!!! Personality is everything!!! Smile😁 ting!
I am so happy that I'm from New Orleans and I'm able to get all of these ingredients! I cooked this for a potluck at work and baby the pan of food was gone !! I also learned how to make potato salad from you & ive cooked many of your other dishes including the gumbo. Delicious !! Thanks for this channel :)
Wow that is Awesome! So to hear from a fellow New Orleans native like myself! I am happy to hear that the shrimp pasta turned out good! If the whole pan was gone that lets you know it was good! You're welcome! That's why I am here to help and inspire others!
OMG this dish is divine! Made this tonight after seeing your channel first time today, ground up my own Creole spice blend, used grated lime zest and splash of juice is definitely permanently on the menu and no not greasy at all even tho' I added a good splash of olive oil to butter oh and used Pecorino instead of Parmy. Thankyou sooo much looking forward to trying more recipes Charlie lots of Peace from Sth Australia
Hey there! I'm happy to hear that the shrimp pasta was successful and that you enjoyed it. Nice work with adding some of your own ingredients to it. Thanks for leaving feedback!!
I wanted to say thank you so much for your time and effort. You are so consistent and detailed. I am from the upstate part of South Carolina so seafood isn't our focus. Growing up I mostly learned how to cook soul food. (Chicken, porkchops, etc) Yet I LOVVVEEE me some seafood. Lol So I was frustrated that I lacked the ability to prepare certian dishes. I foudn your channel and it's been the greatest thing. Because of you I've prepared some of the best cajun pasta, red beans and rice, and the catfish? Please. I've had friends request I make catfish at the next cookout. Lol. You are so wondeful. You are so appreciated. I thank you again.
You're welcome not a problem! Thanks so much for all the compliments! I'm glad I was able to help you with your cooking. Yes I love seafood too. It plays a huge part of New Orleans cuisine! Happy to hear that all of the recipes you've tried were a success! 😁
I made this last night and it was DELICIOUS! I didn't have the seasoning you used but I used a creole seasoning and mixed it with cajun seasoning. My family loved it! Thank you for another great recipe!
+Loni Andy- That's Good. Glad it was DELICIOUS and that your family LOVED IT. So excited to hear this!!!!! :) Yes! You used all creole seasoning and mixed it with cajun seasoning! Wow! I bet it was DELICIOUS!!!! :) Probably tasted better than mines lol. Thanks again for your comment!!!! AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME!!!! :)
Hey Charlie! I know I'm blowing you CZcams comments up today but I just had to make one more comment on this video! I made this last week and OMGGGGG my wife loves it! I made the garnish and followed the recipe verbatim! I think she loves me a little more than she did before cause she loves the shrimp pasta from Olive Garden but she said this was wayyyyy better! Thank you thank you thank you!
It's okay! You're not the only one who does that jk LOL Awesome! Glad that you and your wife loved my shrimp pasta recipe. I'm going to have to watch it because i haven't watched this video in a while lol WOWWW ha ha ha ha ha! Well Thanks so much for the feedback i really appreciate it and you're welcome!
Charles Andrew you are the shit! I've been making your meals in my home since December and every dish is outstanding!!! I JUST made your shrimp pasta tonight and my family is raving about it!!! You the best!!!
I've not experienced rubbery or gummy shrimp due to prolonged cooking either. There are a lot of cooks on CZcams and a lot of differing opinions. Thanks so much Mr. Andrews and keep those Videos coming. I'm learning so much.
Good! I thought i was the only one. lol Yes there are several people who think cooking shrimp for a long period of time causes it to get rubbery. As for me that's never been the case! You're Welcome and I'm glad that you commented about this issue! Ill keep trying to release new videos!
Charlie you made my families night with this easy recipe. I had seen my mom make this before and I wanted to try it so your recipe helped guide Me through. Great job looks delish!
Charlie, I'm excited to say that I tried your recipe for dinner Friday evening, & HUN-NAY, IT WAS A HIT!!! Thank God so much for this channel and thank you for being a very thorough and descriptive cook!! I made a whole big pot and there's NONE leftover!!!

Awesome! Happy to hear that the shrimp pasta turned out good! Thanks for leaving feedback!
I worked in a seafood restaurant, on the Northshore, that served pan toasted Reising's French Bread with the seafood pasta. It was so delicious with the sauce that we had requests for seconds on the bread. Split the loaf and cut into serving size pieces and butter each piece. In an iron skillet, toast butter side down until browned and the crust starts to crinkle from the heat. As it cools it gets crispy and delicious. I just about can't eat the pasta sauce without it. Deli french bread is not the same. Only Reising's or possibly Lidenheimer. I love your cooking!
Ohh okay cool. I'm quite sure that the seafood pasta was good if people requesting to have seconds lol Sounds good though! I'll have to look them up because I've never heard of them before! Thanks a lot! Glad that you are enjoying my videos!
Made this and it was very good.. Charlie man I am taking credit for your dishes. Like you said to the one guy that was rather rude you can tailor it to your taste and liking. Heck you can even add to the ingredients or take away but you gave a foundation. Me myself I like to sautee my shrimp for 2 mins then add them back for 5 mins only cause they can get tough but people should figure out how they like their food. Keep up the good work and keep cooking cause I am taking credit for your recipes man. As for Leonard man you took the high road he sound plain ignorant. You can critique someone with respect, something he needs to learn.. Last time I checked he is on your page and you were not on his.
+Maxx JAX Awesome! Glad that it came out good! Okay cool. Well take the credit. I have no problem with that! :) Yes you know people are going to say what they want to say on here! I don't bother with it too much anymore! lol Thank you! Yes I will keep up with the good work starting with my newest video that I'll be working on soon!

Wow that is a good Idea! I wanted to come up with something similar to that! Thanks!
My brother’s mother in law is from New Orleans and she sounds is exactly like you. She says “ok” a lot too! Love it and y’all do know how to cook in New Orleans!
Hello there! In some of my older videos, I do say okay a lot. I've worked on that with my newer videos and I don't say okay anymore. Happy to hear that you enjoyed the video!
Do you make stuffed shrimp? My husband was there for an Administrative conference and he ranted and raved about the stuffed shrimp there. You food makes me hungry.
Never made stuffed shrimp but I'm sure it would be great addition to my channel! The stuffed shrimp is really good though. I just had it like 4 days ago lol Sorry if I'm making you hungry!
This is the perfect dish
Thanks a lot!

Today's dinner is Pasta It's 2:15am in the morning. Thinking about what I was going to cook. I have always use bottle alfredo sauce. Can I add different meats to this pasta, (example: crab meat, crawfish and lobster.. I will let you know how it came out. I will call it a seafood pasta. Thanks for teaching me on how to make the sauce. Do you have a reciepe for Kabobs.
Wow you're up pretty late lol Nothing like making your own pasta sauce from scratch. It's healthier. Yes you can add crab meat, lobster etc. Let me know the results when you're done! You're welcome! Glad that i was able to help! Unfortunately I don't have a recipe for Kabobs. Sorry.
Charlie,First I would like to thank you sincerely for your unselfish efforts to provide us with your classy, southern, down home, New Orleans cuisine. I am most thankful for your efforts to give us a flavor of "how mama used to do it." You have made my 81 year old parents so happy, because I am now able to prepare meals for them that bring back those fond memories of the aromas and flavors that we grew up with. We are all Houstonians now, and you have created the vehicle to allow me to bring New Orleans to my parents' kitchen in Houston. I am so thankful I recently found your U-tube presentations.Second, I wanted to comment on the "New Orleans Shrimp Pasta" recipe. I followed your recipe on last week with a few minor tweeks to accommodate my parents' medical concerns. I have to be very careful with their intake of certain spices. Nevertheless, they were ever so pleased with the final product. In fact, I have literally replaced my "New Orleans Shrimp Pasta" recipe with yours, but I publicly give you all of the credit.Third, I was hoping to find a boiled crawfish recipe in your tool box but it appears as though you stick to indoor recipes. However, I would be happy to share my recipe with you if you desire. Just email me directly if you are interested. That is another favorite of my parents. They have remarked that my boiled crawfish is the absolute best they ever had.Finally, I wanted share with you that you have me laughing my but off with two things that you either do or say during your presentations. The first is during your introduction you often say, "Some people use thyme, paprika, and all that stuff. No, we don't do all that stuff down here!!!!! Right here is all you gonna need ok!!!!!!!!" The second, which I think is your signature, is when you are testing the final product. In some of your presentations, you point that index finger towards the camera as if to say "wait a minute" the you lift your right thumb up and pound on the table once and in a loud voice say, "Whoooooooooooooooooa, that taste good!!!!! And there you have it folks. New Orleans Shrimp Pasta by Charlie." I'm telling you I can be seen cracking my side laughing.In close, I know I'm a little wordy but you really don't know how much you have blessed me with the tools to return blessings to my parents in ways that I could never have done without your assistance. Thanks so much and may God continue to bless you as you use your talents to do his divine will. If I can ever help you in any way please don't hesitate to reach out.Respectfully,Patrick
Thanks so much Patrick my fellow New Orleans native for the compliments! I am happy to hear that I am able to help you bring New Orleans food to your family's table in Houston! It really feels good knowing that! Don't feel bad! I used to be an Houstonian a few years back right after Katrina. After 9 months I returned back home lol Glad that you all enjoyed the shrimp pasta! Wow that is a huge compliment to replace your own recipe with mines. That is amazing. Just shows how good the recipe really is! I currently do not have a crawfish boil recipe out! It would be difficult for me to create that. I would have to get the tools etc to boil the crawfish and that by itself is quite a bit of money. Next you have the crawfish themselves which is also expensive! Hopefully one day I can create a video on the boiled crawfish. Yes most of the things I say in my presentations about how people be putting tomatoes and carrots in their stuffed bell peppers. We don't put that in our food lol That's not how we rock in New Orleans. LOL Also everyone loves the end part. I think it is imperative to let the audience know how the results of the food example texture and taste. You've seen the presentation already now It's gotta get a rating and that's where the table bangs come in at. The shrimp pasta video was the beginning of the table bangs. Everyone loved it and the rest is history! Again I am so happy to hear that I've helped you and your family in your kitchen one New Orleans recipe at a time. :)
well Charlie bear I am officially Queen cook in this castle 🏰 thanks to you. I prepared this dish for dinner last night and it was a absolute hit out of the ball park baby. Thank you Thank you Thank you kisses 😍😘
+madden Brown Awesome! Good work! :) You're the queen of your castle! :) You're Welcome! :)
Thanks Charlie for the recipe
You're welcome Charles. Nice name by the way!
Okay, Charlie! I am a HUGE fan of yours! Everything that you have made looks SO yummy! My parents are from Louisiana, and I just knew I had all the recipes! Your recipes are very similar to my peeps, just a few differences. Thank you for sharing! Just a quick question: Who inspired you to cook? Be blessed! XO
+Houston Girl Thank you! Oh okay cool. I'm starting to get a lot of people that are from Louisiana or their families are from Louisiana to comment on my videos more! Cool Cool. You're welcome! I appreciate you taking the time to comment! To answer your question I can't really say who inspired me to cook because I've always tried to cook for myself ever since I was a little boy. Now I did learn a few things from my grandmother, aunt and uncle.
Keep on! You're SO fun to watch! Blessed Thanksgiving! God bless you!
+Houston Girl Thank you! Happy Thanksgiving to you too and May God bless you! :)
I'm so mad I'm just finding your channel! This is THE BEST shrimp pasta recipe I've found. I'm also a New Orleans native but moved to California 20 years ago. When I'm feeling homesick I cook NOLA comfort food! Your channel covers all of the classics. THANK YOU for sharing all of these great NOLA recipes!
Thanks so much for the compliments my fellow New Orleans native! Yes that's what New Orleans food will do to you. You're welcome!

Haters going to hate Charlie! You know I'm a big fan! I'm trying to not nail bite myself. Love ya Charlie!!! Leave my Charlie the Cook ALONE!!!! :D

I also learned how to make potato salad from you & ive cooked many of your other dishes including the gumbo. Delicious !! Thanks for this channel :)
Wow that is Awesome! So to hear from a fellow New Orleans native like myself! I am happy to hear that the shrimp pasta turned out good! If the whole pan was gone that lets you know it was good! You're welcome! That's why I am here to help and inspire others!

OMG this dish is divine! Made this tonight after seeing your channel first time today, ground up my own Creole spice blend, used grated lime zest and splash of juice is definitely permanently on the menu and no not greasy at all even tho' I added a good splash of olive oil to butter oh and used Pecorino instead of Parmy. Thankyou sooo much looking forward to trying more recipes Charlie lots of Peace from Sth Australia
Hey there! I'm happy to hear that the shrimp pasta was successful and that you enjoyed it. Nice work with adding some of your own ingredients to it. Thanks for leaving feedback!!
I wanted to say thank you so much for your time and effort. You are so consistent and detailed. I am from the upstate part of South Carolina so seafood isn't our focus. Growing up I mostly learned how to cook soul food. (Chicken, porkchops, etc) Yet I LOVVVEEE me some seafood. Lol So I was frustrated that I lacked the ability to prepare certian dishes. I foudn your channel and it's been the greatest thing. Because of you I've prepared some of the best cajun pasta, red beans and rice, and the catfish? Please. I've had friends request I make catfish at the next cookout. Lol. You are so wondeful. You are so appreciated. I thank you again.
You're welcome not a problem! Thanks so much for all the compliments! I'm glad I was able to help you with your cooking. Yes I love seafood too. It plays a huge part of New Orleans cuisine! Happy to hear that all of the recipes you've tried were a success! 😁
Charlie goodness you did it again!!! Yummmy.
Thanks Wanda!
Louisiana seafood FTW
Yes, absolutely. Thanks a lot!!
I know this was an older video but I was watching it anyway and thought, "Boy, you know this is New Orleans...hot water heater in the kitchen...LOL
Yes, 9 years older. lol 😆
@CharlieAndrews I love your videos. I clean both sides of the 🍤 🦐 shrimp.
Happy to hear that you enjoy my videos. Thanks!
OMG .. that PASTA was awesome and you explain so well , it came out DELICIOUS!!!! LOVE ITTTTTTTT... Thank you
Awesome! Happy to hear that the shrimp pasta turned out good and that you enjoyed it! You're welcome and Thanks for leaving feedback!
I made this last night and it was DELICIOUS! I didn't have the seasoning you used but I used a creole seasoning and mixed it with cajun seasoning. My family loved it! Thank you for another great recipe!
+Loni Andy- That's Good. Glad it was DELICIOUS and that your family LOVED IT. So excited to hear this!!!!! :) Yes! You used all creole seasoning and mixed it with cajun seasoning! Wow! I bet it was DELICIOUS!!!! :) Probably tasted better than mines lol. Thanks again for your comment!!!! AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME!!!! :)
My that's looks amazing.very nice 🙂
Thanks Robert!
I’m watching this in 2021 and omg I love your personality so much! This food looks amazing!!
I appreciate the compliments. Thanks a lot!
I like sweet basil. I grow mine and its really good. Different than basil
That is awesome Judith. Thanks so much!
Hey Charlie! I know I'm blowing you CZcams comments up today but I just had to make one more comment on this video! I made this last week and OMGGGGG my wife loves it! I made the garnish and followed the recipe verbatim! I think she loves me a little more than she did before cause she loves the shrimp pasta from Olive Garden but she said this was wayyyyy better! Thank you thank you thank you!
It's okay! You're not the only one who does that jk LOL Awesome! Glad that you and your wife loved my shrimp pasta recipe. I'm going to have to watch it because i haven't watched this video in a while lol WOWWW ha ha ha ha ha! Well Thanks so much for the feedback i really appreciate it and you're welcome!
Yum!!!!!!!
Thanks!
Charles Andrew you are the shit! I've been making your meals in my home since December and every dish is outstanding!!! I JUST made your shrimp pasta tonight and my family is raving about it!!! You the best!!!
I am happy to hear that all of the recipes you've tried were a success! Thanks for the compliments and for leaving feedback! Appreciate it!
I've not experienced rubbery or gummy shrimp due to prolonged cooking either. There are a lot of cooks on CZcams and a lot of differing opinions. Thanks so much Mr. Andrews and keep those Videos coming. I'm learning so much.
Good! I thought i was the only one. lol Yes there are several people who think cooking shrimp for a long period of time causes it to get rubbery. As for me that's never been the case! You're Welcome and I'm glad that you commented about this issue! Ill keep trying to release new videos!
Not when cooking in liquid
Charlie you made my families night with this easy recipe. I had seen my mom make this before and I wanted to try it so your recipe helped guide Me through. Great job looks delish!
+nuyorican Awesome! Feels good knowing that! Thanks so much!
Thanks Charlie
You're welcome not a problem!
Charlie, I'm excited to say that I tried your recipe for dinner Friday evening, & HUN-NAY, IT WAS A HIT!!! Thank God so much for this channel and thank you for being a very thorough and descriptive cook!! I made a whole big pot and there's NONE leftover!!! Can't wait to try some more of your delicious recipes....sending Blessings and love from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, to Louisiana!!
