ANGEL HAIR PASTA WITH SHRIMP AND FETA CHEESE



Angel Hair Pasta with Shrimp and Feta Cheese image

Once your water starts to boil, add pasta all at once. As the pasta softens, give it a stir so that all the pasta sinks into the boiling water. Angel hair pasta is very thin. It cooks in about 2 to 4 minutes.Source: Unknown

Categories     Seafood

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 9

24 oz. angel hair pasta, cooked al dente and drained
5 tsp. minced garlic
4 tbsp. olive oil
1 lb. small shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails intact
1/4 cup white wine
4 vine ripe tomatoes, chopped
1 pkg. fresh basil, slivered, 1/2 oz.
8 oz. feta cheese, crumbled
large grind pepper to taste

Steps:

  • 1. While pasta is cooking, in heavy large skillet, saute garlic in olive oil over medium high heat til fragrant. Add shrimp and saute til pink and cooked through
  • 2. Add white wine, stir and reduce slightly. Add tomatoes and lower heat. Add basil and feta cheese and stir to blend. season with salt and pepper to taste. Don't overcook shrimp or they become rubbery. Set shrimp mixture aside til pasta is done. Drain pasta and add to the sauce. Mix thoroughly and heat til warmed. Serves 4 to 6
  • 3. Ever wonder why you see numbers on packages of pasta, like Thin Spaghetti #9? In the early days, Irish, German, Italian, and Asian immigrants worked in pasta factories. They spoke so many different languages it was difficult for the factory managers to give instructions. In order to convey the distinctions between the various noodles, pastas were given numbers so that the employees understood which pasta they would make that day. "Today, we are making #9."

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients whenever possible. Fresh shrimp and feta cheese will give your dish the best flavor. If you can't find fresh shrimp, frozen shrimp will work in a pinch. Just be sure to thaw them completely before cooking.
  • Don't overcook the shrimp. Shrimp cooks very quickly, so it's important to keep an eye on it while it's cooking. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and chewy.
  • Use a good quality feta cheese. A good quality feta cheese will have a creamy texture and a tangy flavor. Avoid using feta cheese that is too dry or crumbly.
  • Serve the pasta immediately. Angel hair pasta is best served immediately after it's cooked. The longer it sits, the more likely it is to become gummy.

Conclusion:

Angel hair pasta with shrimp and feta cheese is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It's also a great way to use up leftover shrimp. With its light and flavorful sauce, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
