Garlic Shrimp & Mushroom Pasta
This is a great quick meal if you are traveling in an RV or at home and looking for a great meal in a short time, allow about 30 minutes from start to finish. It serves 5 or 2 people with second helpings!
List of Ingredients are:
8 oz uncooked angel hair pasta or your favorite pasta, I prefer Mezze Penne. (Al Dente) Cooks in 9-10 minutes
1/2 lb. sliced fresh mushrooms.
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1/3 cup olive oil
4 garlic cloves, minced
I lb. uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/2 cup of chicken broth
1 tbsp. Italian seasoning
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
2 Plum tomatoes, finely chopped, or any small yet firm variety will do as well
1/2 cup grated Romano cheese, divided. ( you use half now, half later)
1 Tbsp. butter
Directions:
1. Cook pasta according to package directions. Meanwhile, saute mushrooms and onions in olive oil in a large pan until tender. Add garlic, cook 1 minute longer just enough time to warm it up.
2. Add the shrimp, broth and seasonings. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cook and stir for 4-5 minutes or until sauce is slightly thickened and shrimp turns pink.
3. Stir in the tomatoes, 1/4 cup cheese and butter. Drain paste; toss with shrimp mixture. Sprinkle with remaining cheese.
Extra’s:
Toasted garlic bread sticks and any Italian dipping sauce. I prefer the white truffle infused Olive Oil with Garlic and Tomato dipping sauce seasoning. Serve with a tossed salad for a complete meal.
