Warming pasta dishes are back in the weeknight rotation! This spicy shrimp pasta is from a random issue of Canadian Living and I’m so happy I found it, because it’s SO GOOD.
Ingredients:
1 Box of farfalle (I ended up using about 3/4)
2 tbsp olive oil
1 lb peeled & deveined shrimp
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 cup tomato sauce
1 tsp spicy chili paste
Handful of chopped fresh basil
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 onion, chopped
Parmesan cheese
Instructions
cook pasta according to package directions.
Reserve 1 cup of pasta water; drain pasta.
Meanwhile, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add shrimp and cook until pink, about 3 min
Add garlic, tomato sauce, chili paste and basil; season with salt and pepper.
Add the onion; cook for another few minutes
Stir in half of the reserved cooking liquid and simmer
Add pasta, tossing to evenly coat pasta with sauce, 1 to 2 minutes.
Serve with more chopped basil and shredded Parmesan cheese
