Capellini with Shrimp, Peppers, and Salami image

Super-thin capellini pasta cooks faster than other varieties; sweet and slightly spicy peppers, with strips of salami, add instant flavor.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 7

Coarse salt and ground pepper
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 mixed bell peppers (ribs and seeds removed), thinly sliced lengthwise
1 pound frozen large shrimp (peeled and deveined), thawed
2 ounces thinly sliced Genoa salami, cut into strips (1/2 cup)
1/4 cup pepperocini, stems removed, thinly sliced crosswise
8 ounces capellini pasta (angel-hair)

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high. Add bell peppers, and cook, tossing, until crisp-tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Add shrimp, and cook, tossing, until opaque throughout, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in salami and pepperoncini; season with salt and pepper.
  • Cook pasta until al dente; drain, and return to pot. Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil to pasta in pot; season with salt and pepper, and toss to combine. Serve pasta topped with shrimp mixture and pan juices.

Tips:

  • Use fresh shrimp for the best flavor and texture. If using frozen shrimp, thaw them completely before cooking.
  • Cook the shrimp until they are just pink and opaque. Overcooking will make them tough and rubbery.
  • Use a light touch when stirring the pasta so that it doesn't break.
  • Add the shrimp and sauce to the pasta and cook until the shrimp are heated through.
  • Serve immediately with a sprinkle of chopped parsley or basil.

Conclusion:

Capellini al gamberetti is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and light meal. The combination of shrimp, garlic, white wine, and butter creates a flavorful sauce that coats the delicate angel hair pasta perfectly. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
