    Shrimp Fettuccine


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    1 package (9 ounces) fresh fettuccine
    3/4 cup shredded fresh Parmesan cheese, divided
    1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
    2 garlic cloves, pressed or minced
    1 pound shelled uncooked shrimp
    2 small zucchini, sliced into ‘fin rounds
    2 tablespoons water
    2 medium tomatoes, diced
    1 cup frozen peas, thawed
    1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil

    Recipe



    Cook the fettuccine in a large pot of boiling water for about 2 minutes, or until tender but still form to the bite. Drain thoroughly in a colander, place in a bowl and toss with 1/2 cup of the Parmesan. Set aside.

    Warm the oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook for about 1 minutes, or just until it sizzles. Add the shrimp and cook, stirring constantly, for about 2 minutes, or until it turns opaque. Transfer the mixture to a bowl.

    Add the zucchini and water to the same skillet and cook over medium-high heat for about 3 minutes, or until the zucchini is crisp-tender. Add the tomatoes, peas and basil; cook for 1 minutes. Stir in the cooked shrimp.

    Divide the fettuccine among serving plates and top with the shrimp mixture. Serve sprinkled with the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan.

    In a Flash!
    Use one bag of frozen mixed vegetables instead of the zucchini, tomatoes and peas; cook briefly to heat. Replace the fresh basil with 1 teaspoon dried.

    Makes 4 servings
