Seared Shrimp and Chickpea Pasta with Tomato Basil Sauce
Pan-seared shrimp and chickpea pasta tossed in a zesty tomato sauce, finished with a handful of fresh, fragrant basil.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz raw Shrimp, peeled and deveined
1.5 oz Chickpea Pasta (dry weight)
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic, minced
5 leaves Fresh Basil, torn
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel and season lightly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and sear for 2 minutes per side until pink and opaque.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Lower the heat to medium and pour in the marinara sauce, stirring to combine with the shrimp and garlic.
Drain the pasta and add it directly into the skillet with the sauce and shrimp.
Toss everything together for 1 minute until the pasta is well coated and the sauce is heated through.
Remove from heat and garnish with the fresh torn basil before serving.
