This is a very easy, quick meal to prepare, especially if you keep these ingredients available in your pantry and freezer. Do not over cook the shrimp... Remove pan from heat when shrimp goes from transparent to white in color. Spice Islands Pizza & Pasta Sicilian Seasoning (for topping once dish is on plate) has a slight sweet and savory taste. It is -not- similar to the italian seasoning most people have in their cupboard. It comes in a grater-topped bottle for easy grinding directly onto dish. And it's great on pizza too! Check it out here: http://www.tones.com/products/display_product.php?product_id=111 *Available at Sam's Club Also great with ASPARAGUS as pictured! Add asparagus (2" lengths) when adding shrimp for al dente, or a little earlier if you like it more tender. I take a vegetable peeler to the stalks if they are on the large side.

Steps:
- Heat oil reserved from tomatoes in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add asparagus and sauté until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer asparagus to bowl. Add sun-dried tomatoes, shrimp, 1/4 cup basil, garlic, oregano, and crushed red pepper to same skillet and sauté until shrimp are just opaque in center, about 3 minutes.

Tips:
- Choose high-quality ingredients: Use fresh shrimp, artichokes, and asparagus for the best flavor. Look for shrimp that are firm and have a slight briny smell. Artichokes should be heavy for their size and have tightly closed leaves. Asparagus should be bright green and have firm tips.
- Cook the shrimp properly: Shrimp cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, or until it is pink and opaque.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the shrimp, asparagus, and artichokes, make sure not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the ingredients from cooking evenly.
- Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what will bring all the flavors of the dish together. Use a flavorful sauce that complements the shrimp, artichoke, and asparagus. A simple lemon-butter sauce or a creamy Alfredo sauce are both excellent choices.
- Garnish the dish: Before serving, garnish the dish with fresh herbs, such as parsley or basil. This will add a pop of color and flavor to the dish.
Conclusion:
Shrimp penne pasta with artichoke or asparagus is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion.
