Sizz, this is the first dinner I ever made for DH when we were dating. He still loves it!
Angel Hair Pasta with Shrimp and basil
¼ c light olive oil
1 (8 oz) pkg angel hair pasta
1 tsp chopped garlic
1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 (28 oz) cans Italian-style diced tomatoes, drained
½ c dry white wine
¼ c chopped parsley
3 Tbsp chopped fresh basil
3 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
Add 1 Tbsp olive oil to a large pot of lightly salted water and bring to a boil. Add pasta, and cook until al dente; drain. To keep pasta from sticking together, rinse it quickly with cold water. (I don't do this; I just wait and cook pasta at the end, while sauce cooks.)
Heat remaining olive oil in a 10" skillet. Cook garlic over medium heat, stirring constantly until tender, about 1minute. Do not let the garlic burn. Add shrimp, and continue stirring until pink, about 3-5 minutes. Remove shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
Stir tomatoes, wine, parsley, and basil into the skillet. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until liquid is reduced by half, 8-12 minutes. Return shrimp to the skillet and continue cooking until the shrimp are heated through, 2-3 minutes. Serve the shrimp mixture over the pasta. Top with Parmesan cheese.
