I had a craving for a Shrimp Primavera today. I went with a simple pepper, mushroom and onion combination. Super tasty; I perhaps could have seasoned it a bit more but the flavors of each ingredient came through nicely as I made it.
- 1/2 pound angel hair or desired pasta cooked according to package directions (reserving about 1/4 cup of pasta water)
- extra virgin olive oil
- 1 bell pepper
- 1/2 medium onion
- 1/2 jalapeno
- 8 o.z. mushrooms
- 12 o.z. shrimp
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup fresh tomato – cut into wedges
- 3-4 cloves garlic
- 1 Tbs fresh basil
- parmesan cheese
In skillet heat about 1 Tbs olive oil. Cut pepper, onion, jalapeno and mushrooms into chunks. Saute about 5 minutes until desired tenderness. Remove from skillet and set aside. In same skillet heat a little more olive oil. Add shrimp; season with salt and pepper and cook until shrimp is cooked though about 5 minutes depending on size of shrimp. Return veggies to pan and stir in tomato, garlic, basil and reserved pasta water. Toss with pasta and serve with parmesan cheese.
Enjoy ~ Kimberly
