FUSILLI W/ SHRIMP AND ARUGULA



FUSILLI W/ SHRIMP AND ARUGULA image

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup finely chopped shallots
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 cup dry white wine
1 pound large shrimp, peeled and de-veined
12 ounces fusilli pasta
3 cups (packed) fresh arugula, torn in 1/2

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add the shallots and garlic and and saute until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the red pepper flakes and white wine and bring to a simmer. Simmer until the wine reduces by half, about 5 minutes. Add the shrimp and cook just until they are pink, about 2 minutes. Meanwhile, cook the fusilli in a large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain the fusilli. Add the fusilli and arugula to the skillet. Toss to combine. Season the pasta, to taste, with salt and pepper. Transfer the pasta to a large bowl and serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh shrimp: Fresh shrimp have a sweeter, more delicate flavor than frozen shrimp. If you're using frozen shrimp, thaw them in the refrigerator overnight or under cold water for about 30 minutes.
  • Cook the shrimp properly: Shrimp cook quickly, so it's important not to overcook them. Cook them over medium heat for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they're pink and opaque.
  • Use high-quality pasta: The type of pasta you use can make a big difference in the final dish. Look for a high-quality pasta that's made with durum wheat semolina.
  • Don't overcrowd the pasta: When you're cooking the pasta, don't overcrowd the pot. This will prevent the pasta from cooking evenly.
  • Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what really brings this dish together. Use a flavorful sauce that complements the shrimp and pasta.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs: Before serving, garnish the dish with fresh herbs such as basil, parsley, or chives. This will add a pop of color and flavor.

Conclusion:

Shrimp fusilli is a quick and easy weeknight meal that's perfect for busy families. It's made with simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand, and it's a great way to get your kids to eat seafood. With its creamy, flavorful sauce and tender shrimp, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
