Amazing Angel Hair Pasta With Shrimp Recipes

SHRIMP AND ANGEL HAIR PASTA

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.
