GARLIC SHRIMP PASTA #DINNER #SHRIMP
Recorded under plans that make me feel like an extravagant café culinary expert, despite the fact that what I'm really doing is blending noodles and drinking wine: Garlic Shrimp Pasta! This fast, simple, and solid shrimp formula possesses a flavor like the kind of exceptional night out supper I ache for on a Friday, just for the degree of exertion I'm willing to put in on a Tuesday.
This shrimp pasta feels part hold-me-I-love-you, part give-me-carbs-I-love-myself. Regardless of whether the main velvety pasta you've made before left a blue box, this is so completely, scrumptiously possible that you can cook it with certainty and achievement.
Maybe you need a basic weeknight supper (ALWAYS). Maybe you are cooking for an extraordinary somebody (I hear there's an up and coming occasion that begins with a "v," rhymes with "alentine's," and finishes in chocolate). Maybe you just truly love noodles. I and Garlic Shrimp Pasta remain close to you.
This sound Garlic Shrimp Pasta has my optimal pasta/veg/protein proportion. You'll discover heaps of shading turned in with the noodles. The pasta is plainly present, however you won't feel like you're eating goliath heap of for the most part spaghetti with a couple of easygoing veggies and a rare shrimp or two spotted scantily all through, as though they're being apportioned.
Ingredients:
- 8 ounces whole-wheat linguine — or similar thin pasta noodles
- 1 pound fresh or frozen raw shrimp — peeled, tails removed (if frozen, thaw in the refrigerator overnight before using)
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil — divided
- 1 shallot — peeled and diced
- 5 cloves garlic — minced
- 1/2-1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes — divided (use less if sensitive to spice; 1 teaspoon will have a good kick)
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt — divided
- 1 teaspoon black pepper — divided
- 24 ounces mixed vegetables — of your choice, fresh or frozen. If frozen, thaw and drain
- 1/4 cup dry white wine — such as Sauvignon Blanc (or substitute low-sodium chicken broth)
- Zest and juice of 1 large or 2 small lemons
- 3 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese — plus additional as desired
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley — plus additional as desired
Instructions:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta until al dente, according to package directions. Reserve 1/4 cup pasta water, drain remaining water, and then toss with a bit of olive oil to prevent sticking. Set aside.
- Meanwhile, rinse the shrimp and pat dry. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shallot and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1 additional minute. Add the shrimp, and then sprinkle with half the amount of red pepper (1/4 or 1/2 teaspoon depending upon your desired spice level), 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Sauté, stirring to coat with garlic, just until cooked through (both sides will be pink and opaque), about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove to a plate and set aside.
- Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium high. Add the vegetables and the remaining 1/4 or 1/2 teaspoon red pepper, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Cook until the vegetables are hot and lightly sautéed, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the white wine and return the shrimp to the skillet. Cook for 2 minutes, allowing the wine to reduce. Stir in the lemon zest and juice and remove from heat.
- Add the pasta to the skillet and toss. If the pasta is too dry, add a bit of the reserved pasta water. Serve warm, topped with Parmesan and parsley.
