Ingredients Needed:
4-6 oz cooked pasta of your choice
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
10-12 raw jumbo shrimp (washed and deveined with tails and shells removed)
Cooked vegetables of your choice (about 100-200 grams)
I use steamed broccoli but any vegetable will work even frozen vegetables
Salt, red chili flakes and fresh ground pepper to taste
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder or 1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/4-1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Optional - parmesan cheese to top
Servings Made: 2-3 servings
Time to Prep: 5 minutes
Time to Cook: 20 minutes
How to Make:
Cook and drain pasta as per box instructions and set aside.
Heat up oil and butter in a large pan over medium heat. If you are using minced garlic, add this now and sauté for a minute until garlic is fragrant.
Ensure shrimp are patted very dry. Add raw shrimp to pan and cook for 4-5 minutes until shrimp almost cooked through. Add veggies and pasta as well as your seasonings. Mix well and cook another 2-3 minutes until shrimp cooked through.
Top with parmesan cheese and serve.
Enjoy!
