INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Shrimp
1 cup Asparagus
1 ounce (dry) Whole Wheat Pasta
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic (or crushed garlic clove) and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook on medium-high heat for about 2 minutes on each side, until they become pink and are just cooked through.
Add the chopped asparagus to the skillet and sauté for another 2-3 minutes until tender but still crisp.
Stir in the fresh lemon juice, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Toss the cooked pasta into the skillet with the shrimp and asparagus, ensuring everything is well combined and heated through.
Serve immediately, garnished with additional lemon zest or fresh herbs if desired.
