Kosher salt
1 zucchini, sliced into thin rounds
1 summer squash, sliced into thin rounds
1 pint cherry tomatoes
1/2 onion, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, chopped
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano leaves
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Scrape the vegetables into a large pasta bowl and cover with a plate to keep everything warm.

  • To finish, scoop out about 1/4 cup of the pasta cooking water, drain the pasta, and toss gently with the roasted vegetables and Grilled Shrimp. Add the pasta water if needed.
  • Heat a large outdoor grill and wipe down with oiled paper towel to create a nonstick surface. Add chopped garlic to 1/2 cup oil. Season shrimp with salt and pepper and place on grill. Baste with garlic-olive oil and grill 3 minutes each side basting as you go.

GARLIC HERB SHRIMP AND SPAGHETTI SQUASH RECIPE BY TASTY



Garlic Herb Shrimp And Spaghetti Squash Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: spaghetti squash, oil, salt, pepper, raw shrimp, garlic, onion powder, dried parsley, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, pepper, oil, parmesan cheese, fresh parsley

Provided by Tiffany Lo

Categories     Dinner

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 spaghetti squash
oil, to taste
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
1 lb raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon dried basil
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon oil
parmesan cheese, optional
fresh parsley, for garnish

Steps:

  • Using a fork or knife, carefully poke holes along the middle of the squash.
  • Microwave for 5 minutes so the squash softens and is easier to cut.
  • Cut in half horizontally and scoop out the seeds.
  • Drizzle olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  • Place in the Instant Pot and secure the lid until you hear the beep. Tip: Closing the lid can be tricky. Have the pressure knob at 11 o'clock and turn right.
  • Set the pressure knob on the top of the lid to Sealing. Select "Manual" and reduce to 7 minutes. It will say "On" in a few seconds. Note: the Instant Pot will need to warm up for 5-10 minutes. Steam will be released and a few minutes later, the time will start counting down.
  • While the squash is cooking, prepare the shrimp. Place the shrimp in a bowl and add the minced garlic, onion powder, parsley, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Mix until combined. Refrigerate until ready to cook.
  • Once the 7 minutes is up, let the squash rest in the pot for 5 minutes. It will count up and read "L 0:05".
  • Using a towel or mit, release the pressure knob from "Sealing" to "Venting". After the steam has been released, carefully take the squash out of the pot and let it rest in a bowl.
  • Drain the excess liquid and clean the pot.
  • To cook the shrimp, select "Saute" on the Instant Pot. Once it says "Hot", add the oil. When the oil is shimmering, add the shrimp in a single layer (cook in batches if necessary). Cook for 3-5 minutes per side or until opaque.
  • Press "Cancel" and remove the shrimp.
  • Using a fork, shred the inside of the squash.
  • Serve the spaghetti squash and shrimp together. If desired, top with parmesan cheese and fresh parsley.
  • Enjoy!

SPAGHETTI SQUASH SAUTEED WITH SHRIMP



Spaghetti Squash Sauteed With Shrimp image

Yummy, healthier version of spaghetti! Shrimp and colorful peppers and onions add a summer feel to this dish my mother and I created one night. Quick with microwave, but if you prefer an oven, bake the squash halves at 350 for about an hour or until soft. Capers would make a good addition to this! Spaghetti sauce has great basic taste so it could be a healthier base to any pasta dish. Serves four for a delicious dinner or a side could serve 8-10.

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

1 colored pepper (I used an orange-yellow one, whatever suits you)
2 -4 tablespoons butter
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • While squash is in microwave, chop the bell pepper, onions, and colored pepper.
  • Melt butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat and saute garlic.
  • Add shrimp, onions, and both peppers and saute until shrimp are cooked.
  • Take squash out of microwave, remove seeds, and scrape out squash with a fork, creating "spaghetti.".

SPAGHETTI W/ EGGPLANT, SQUASH AND SHRIMP



SPAGHETTI W/ EGGPLANT, SQUASH AND SHRIMP image

Categories     Pasta     Shellfish     Quick & Easy     Boil

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
3 large garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 small butternut squash, peeled, seeded, and cut into 1/2-inch pieces (about 5 cups)
2 Japanese eggplants, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 teaspoon dried rosemary, crumbled
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
1 1/4 cups dry white wine
2 cups fish broth, fresh or frozen, or canned vegetable broth
2 pounds uncooked large shrimp, peeled and deveined
Salt and pepper
17.5 ounces orange-colored fresh spaghetti or linguine
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a heavy large nonstick frying pan over medium heat. Add onion and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and saute for just a minute. Add the squash, eggplant, rosemary and thyme and saute for 8 to 10 minutes. Add the wine and broth and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Decrease the heat to medium-low and simmer until the squash is tender and the liquid is reduced by about half, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Add the shrimp and simmer gently until almost cooked through, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring often, about 5 minutes. Drain pasta. (Alternatively, you can use dried pasta, which will take 8 to 10 minutes to cook.) Toss the pasta, squash mixture, and butter in a large bowl until the liquid thickens slightly and coats the pasta. Transfer the pasta mixture to a wide shallow bowl and serve.

Tips:

  • To save time, use pre-cut eggplant and squash from the grocery store.
  • Be sure to salt the eggplant before cooking to remove any bitterness.
  • Cook the eggplant and squash until they are tender but still have a little bit of a bite to them.
  • Use a large skillet or Dutch oven to cook the dish so that all of the ingredients have room to cook evenly.
  • Add the shrimp last so that they don't overcook.
  • Serve the dish over pasta or rice.

Conclusion:

This spaghetti with eggplant, squash, and shrimp is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of flavors and textures is sure to please everyone at the table. Plus, it's a healthy dish that is packed with vegetables.
