GARLIC ANGEL HAIR SHRIMP
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.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook angel hair in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain, reserving 1 cup of the water.
- Melt 1 tablespoon in a large skillet over high heat. Saute shrimp in hot butter until no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Remove shrimp with a slotted spoon to a bowl, retaining liquid in the skillet.
- Reduce heat to medium-high. Cook onion and garlic in the retained liquid in the skillet until the onions are translucent 5 to 7 minutes. Stir tomatoes into the onion mixture; cook and stir until the tomatoes soften, about 5 minutes.
- Stir asparagus into the tomato mixture and add the reserved water from cooking the pasta; bring liquid to a simmer and cook until the asparagus is tender, about 5 minutes. Add the shrimp and angel hair pasta; stir. Cook until the shrimp is completely opaque in the middle, 2 to 3 minutes more. Season with salt and garnish with Parmesan cheese and lemon wedges.

My daughter won't eat this (seafood is "icky" to her), but my husband and I will eat her portion :) This makes a simple (yet rich) dish! Came from Bertolli (as they make the pasta sauce).

Tips:
- Use fresh shrimp. Fresh shrimp will have a sweeter flavor and a firmer texture than frozen shrimp.
- Devein and peel the shrimp. Deveining and peeling the shrimp will help to remove any grit or sand that may be present. You can also buy shrimp that is already deveined and peeled, but it will be more expensive.
- Marinate the shrimp. Marinating the shrimp in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs will help to infuse the shrimp with flavor.
- Cook the shrimp properly. Shrimp should be cooked quickly over high heat. Overcooking the shrimp will make them tough and rubbery.
- Use a good quality pasta. Angel hair pasta is a thin, delicate pasta that pairs well with the creamy garlic sauce. You can also use other types of pasta, such as spaghetti or penne.
- Make the sauce ahead of time. The creamy garlic sauce can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This will save you time when you're ready to make the dish.
Conclusion:
This creamy garlic shrimp with angel hair pasta is a quick and easy dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The shrimp is cooked in a flavorful garlic sauce and served over a bed of angel hair pasta. The dish is creamy, garlicky, and delicious. It's sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
