A luscious veggie and shrimp dish with a silky garlic sauce and shishito peppers. Serve with toasted garlic bread.
Ingredients
- 1 (16 ounce) package angel hair pasta
- 3 tablespoons butter, divided
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- 5 cloves garlic, minced, or to taste
- ¼ teaspoon salt, or more to taste
- 1 medium zucchini, halved lengthwise and sliced
- 1 medium yellow squash, halved lengthwise and sliced
- ¾ cup chopped shishito peppers
- 1 pinch red pepper flakes
- 2 pounds small shrimp, peeled and deveined
- ½ cup frozen green peas
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese, or to taste
Directions
Step 1
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook angel hair pasta in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, for about 1 minute less than recommended, 3 to 4 minutes. Reserve 1/4 cup pasta water. Drain pasta and return to the pot.
Step 2
Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons butter and 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-low heat. Add garlic and 1/4 teaspoon salt, cook until fragrant, about 1 minute, being sure not to burn. Add zucchini, yellow squash, shishito peppers, and pepper flakes; saute until vegetables begin to soften, 3 to 5 minutes.
Step 3
Spread vegetables to the outside of the skillet. Add remaining butter and olive oil to the center of the skillet and increase heat to medium. When butter has melted, add shrimp to the center of the skillet, and peas to the outside. Toss shrimp to cook for 2 to 3 minutes, then toss to mix with vegetables. Add reserved 1/4 cup pasta water and bring to a gentle boil, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat.
Step 4
Add reserved pasta to the pot and gently toss with veggies and shrimp. Taste and add salt if necessary. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
Cook’s Notes:
You can use spiralized pasta instead of angel hair, or even spaghetti squash or veggie noodles.
