Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
3/4 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 pound spaghetti
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for the pasta water
2/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil

SPAGHETTI WITH BACON



Spaghetti with Bacon image

Great simple pasta dish. Good to have the night before a race. This is also good with sauteed shrimp.

Provided by Alma G.

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Pork

Time 25m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (16 ounce) package spaghetti
¼ cup olive oil
8 slices bacon, cut into 1/4 inch pieces
4 cloves garlic, minced
½ cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

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 spaghetti, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
  • Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in the bacon, and cook until the bacon has begun to shrink, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic, and continue cooking and stirring until the garlic has softened, and the bacon is crisp, about 5 minutes. Toss the drained pasta with the bacon, oil, and parsley to serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest shrimp possible. Look for shrimp that are firm and have a slight briny smell. Avoid shrimp that are slimy or have a strong fishy odor.
  • Cook the shrimp properly. Shrimp should be cooked until they are pink and opaque. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
  • Use high-quality bacon. Thick-cut bacon with a good smoky flavor will give your dish the best flavor.
  • Don't skimp on the garlic and herbs. Garlic and herbs add a lot of flavor to this dish, so don't be afraid to use plenty of them.
  • Serve the spaghetti with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese and a squeeze of lemon juice. This will add a delicious finishing touch to the dish.

Conclusion:

Spaghetti with shrimp and bacon is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of shrimp, bacon, garlic, and herbs is simply irresistible. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal that is packed with flavor, give this spaghetti with shrimp and bacon a try.
