Garlic Shrimp Pasta with White Beans
Sautéed succulent shrimp and creamy white beans tossed with whole wheat pasta in a fragrant garlic-lemon sauce.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz shrimp
0.5 cup cannellini beans
1 oz dry whole wheat spaghetti
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic
0.25 tsp red pepper flakes
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp fresh parsley
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 cup baby spinach
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat spaghetti according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes to the skillet, sautéing for about 1 minute until the aroma is fragrant and the garlic is golden.
Increase the heat slightly and add the shrimp, cooking for 2-3 minutes until they turn pink and opaque.
Stir in the rinsed cannellini beans and baby spinach, cooking just until the spinach is wilted and the beans are heated through.
Drain the pasta, reserving a small splash of the cooking water, and add the noodles directly into the skillet.
Toss everything together with the lemon juice, sea salt, black pepper, and fresh parsley, adding a bit of the reserved pasta water if needed to create a light, silky sauce.
