PASTA POMODORO WITH SHRIMP

Steps:

• In a large pot, add water and bring to a boil while you are chopping the tomatoes. Don't add the angel hair pasta yet, it cooks quickly (usually 3-4 minutes) so you will want to add it to the boiling water after you start cooking the tomatoes.
• In a large skillet over medium heat add 1 tablespoon olive oil and cook shrimp until it has turned pink, about 1 - 2 minutes per side. Remove shrimp from pan and set aside.
• Drain any liquid from the skillet, reduce heat to medium-low and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. When oil is hot, add chopped tomatoes, then salt and pepper to taste. Stir occasionally and cook for 5 minutes and then add chopped garlic. Cook 2 - 3 minutes more and until the tomatoes get soft and garlic is fragrant.
• Add angel hair pasta to the boiling water and cook per box instructions (typically 3-4 minutes).
• While the pasta is cooking, put the shrimp back into the skillet, add the freshly chopped basil and a small amount of olive oil to taste (1-2 tsp is what I use). Stirring well to combine and bring out the flavor of the basil. Taste and add more salt, if needed. Add the crushed red pepper flakes, if you like a little kick of heat.
• Drain pasta (reserving about 1/2 cup of the pasta water). Add pasta into the skillet to combine with the tomatoes, shrimp and basil. Stir to fully combined. If you want the sauce to be more moist, add some of the pasta water, as desired.
• Serve topped with freshly grated parmesan cheese and fresh basil and enjoy!
