GARLIC HERB SHRIMP AND SPAGHETTI SQUASH RECIPE BY TASTY

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!

• Use a fork to scrape the inside of the squash to form spaghetti-like strands and transfer to a large serving bowl.
• Heat the oil over medium heat in a very large, deep skillet (or even a large Dutch oven or pot). Add the garlic and saute until just golden, about 30 seconds. Add the shrimp and onion, season with salt and pepper and saute until the shrimp are pink and almost cooked through, about 4 minutes. Add the tomatoes, olives and oregano and saute until the mixture is hot and the shrimp are cooked through, another 2 minutes.

Brush the flesh of each half with 1 teaspoon of the oil and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Put the halves flesh-side down on a baking sheet and bake until the flesh can easily be flaked with a fork and the edges just turn brown, about 45 minutes.
• Separate the strands of squash by scraping the flesh with a fork. Transfer the scraped strands to a large bowl. Cover with foil and keep warm. Reserve the scraped squash shells.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in the skillet. Add the shrimp and cook until golden pink, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer the shrimp to the bowl with the squash strands.
• Return the skillet to medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of the butter. When melted, add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in the wine and lemon juice. Increase the heat to high and boil until the liquid thickens slightly, about 1 minute. Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the remaining 3 tablespoons butter and the parsley.
• Pour the sauce over the shrimp and squash strands and toss to combine. Transfer the mixture back into the squash shells and top with grated Parmesan, more parsley and red pepper flakes.
