Shrimp and Angel Hair Pasta image

Easy, healthy, and FAST. This is a great weeknight dinner adapted from Woman's Day magazine, although its elegant enough for a dinner party. Just make sure to do your prep work ahead of time, since this comes together quickly. Great served with peas/onions side dish.

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 lb angel hair pasta
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 lb medium shrimp, peeled and deveined (can be cooked or uncooked, see steps for instructions for each)
2 teaspoons garlic, chopped
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 cup chicken broth (can substitute half with white wine to increase flavor)
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon lemon peel, grated fresh
1/4 cup lemon juice, squeezed fresh
1/2 cup Italian parsley, chopped
1/3 cup parmesan cheese, grated

Steps:

  • Cook pasta according to package instructions and drain.
  • While pasta cooks, heat one tablespoon of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, shrimp (if using uncooked shrimp), and 1/2 tsp each of salt and pepper. Saute two minutes or until shrimp are barely pink and/or garlic is soft.
  • Add broth and crushed red pepper. Increase heat to high.
  • Add cooked shrimp (if not using uncooked shrimp in step 2).
  • Cook on high heat for 2-3 minutes (just one minute if you used uncooked shrimp earlier), until shrimp are warmed through.
  • Stir in lemon peel and juice.
  • Put the pasta in a serving bowl, add the remaining tablespoon olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
  • Add the shrimp mixture, parsley, and cheese (gradually so as not to clump up the cheese). Toss to mix and serve immediately.
