Time 25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 ounces uncooked angel hair pasta
olive oil
1 pound uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 onion, chopped
10 sun-dried tomatoes, cut into strips
4 cloves garlic, minced
½ bunch chopped fresh parsley
½ bunch chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the angel hair pasta, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
  • Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in the shrimp and onion; cook and stir until the shrimp are beginning to turn pink, about 2 minutes. Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes and garlic. Continue cooking until the shrimp are no longer opaque in the center and the onion has turned translucent, about 4 minutes. Stir in the parsley and cilantro, and pour over pasta to serve.

I'm a vegetarian, so I made this dish with tofu instead of shrimp. It was a great way to get my protein fix.

I'm allergic to shrimp, so I made this dish with chicken instead. It was still delicious!

This recipe is a bit bland. I would recommend adding more spices or herbs.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my shrimp turned out rubbery. I think I overcooked it.

This dish is a bit too spicy for my taste. I would recommend using less chili pepper next time.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover shrimp. I had some shrimp that I needed to use up, and this dish was the perfect solution.

I'm not a huge fan of cilantro, but I really enjoyed this dish. The parsley and lime juice balanced out the cilantro flavor perfectly.

This shrimp dish was a hit! The cilantro and parsley added a refreshing and flavorful twist to the shrimp, and the lime juice gave it a nice citrusy tang. I served it over rice, and it was a delicious and healthy meal.
