Add the onion; cook for 10 minutes or until tender, stirring frequently.Add the broth, vermouth and zest. Increase the heat to medium-high; cook for 8 minutes or until the mixture begins to thicken. Reduce heat to medium. Add the cheese; mix until smooth. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt, nutmeg and pepper; remove from heat. Add the shrimp and onion mixture to the pasta mixture; toss to combine.
