Time 40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 pound thin string beans
6 ounces baby carrots, peeled
15 asparagus tips
12 ounces medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
10 ounces cherry tomatoes, halved if large
1 yellow bell pepper, seeded and sliced
6 large radishes, sliced
1 pound fusilli pasta
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Heat a saucepan of lightly salted water to boiling. Add the string beans and cook for about 5 minutes. Remove. Place in a bowl of ice water to cool. In the same boiling water, cook the carrots for about 5 minutes; cool as for the string beans. Add the asparagus tips to the same boiling water and cook for about 3 minutes. Cool, as for the other vegetables.
  • In about 1 cup lightly salted boiling water, cook the shrimp until pink, about 3 minutes. Remove from water and cool.
  • Boil the pasta in salted water as the package directs for al dente. Reserve about 1 cup of the pasta cooking water; drain pasta. Cool and place in a serving bowl. Add the cooked vegetables; the raw tomatoes, bell pepper and radishes; and the shrimp. Sprinkle with parsley and olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss. Add a little pasta cooking water and toss again. Adjust seasoning as necessary.

Overall, this was a good recipe. The sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the shrimp were cooked perfectly. The vegetables were also flavorful. I would definitely make this dish again.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste. The sauce was very tangy and the shrimp were a bit overcooked. I think I would use less chili flakes next time and cook the shrimp for a shorter amount of time.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. The sauce was not very flavorful and the vegetables were not cooked enough. I think I would add more herbs and spices to the sauce next time, and cook the vegetables for a bit longer.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste. The sauce was very creamy and the shrimp were a bit overcooked. The vegetables were also a bit bland. I think I would prefer a lighter sauce and less shrimp next time.
