INGREDIENTS
4 oz Shrimp (113g)
2 oz Whole Wheat Pasta (56g, dry)
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (13.5g)
1 tbsp Lemon Juice (15g)
1 clove Garlic (3g)
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley (3.8g)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to a boil and add a pinch of salt. Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, pat the shrimp dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for approximately 2 minutes per side or until they turn pink and opaque.
Stir in the lemon juice and toss in the fresh parsley, allowing the flavors to meld for an additional 30 seconds.
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and gently toss to combine, ensuring the pasta is well coated with the garlic-lemon mixture.
Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper if needed, then serve immediately, enjoying the burst of citrus and herb-infused flavors.
