GARLIC ANGEL HAIR SHRIMP



Garlic Angel Hair Shrimp image

This was inspired by one of my favorite restaurant pasta dishes. I keep the lemon separate until the end due to a picky family member, but you could add it earlier if everyone likes lemon. Do not use pre-cooked shrimp and don't overcook the shrimp.

Tips:

  • Use fresh asparagus. Fresh asparagus is crisp, tender, and has a slightly sweet flavor. If you can't find fresh asparagus, you can use frozen asparagus, but be sure to thaw it completely before using.
  • Don't overcook the asparagus. Asparagus should be cooked until it is tender-crisp, but not mushy. Overcooked asparagus is tough and stringy.
  • Use good quality shrimp. Wild-caught shrimp is the best choice, but farm-raised shrimp can also be used. Be sure to devein the shrimp before cooking.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. When cooking the shrimp, be sure to not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the shrimp from cooking evenly.
  • Use a flavorful sauce. The sauce in this recipe is simple but flavorful. You can use a store-bought sauce or make your own. If you are making your own sauce, be sure to use fresh ingredients.

Conclusion:

Asparagus and shrimp are a classic combination that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. This recipe is simple to follow and can be tailored to your own taste.
