Garlic Shrimp with Chickpea Penne
Sautéed shrimp and chickpea penne tossed in a zesty garlic-lemon sauce with wilted spinach for a vibrant and nutrient-dense meal.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz shrimp
2 oz chickpea penne
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic
1 cup fresh baby spinach
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.25 tsp red pepper flakes
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Boil a pot of salted water and cook the chickpea penne according to package directions until al dente.
Reserve 2 tablespoons of the pasta cooking water, then drain the penne and set aside.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and season with sea salt and black pepper, sautéing for 2-3 minutes until pink and opaque.
Stir in the minced garlic and red pepper flakes, cooking for 1 minute until the garlic is fragrant but not browned.
Add the cooked penne, reserved pasta water, baby spinach, and lemon juice to the skillet.
Toss all ingredients together for 1-2 minutes until the spinach is just wilted and the pasta is evenly coated in the light sauce.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately while warm.
