Easy Shrimp Pasta Recipe

Shrimp Fettuccine Recipe

This is, indeed, an easy shrimp pasta recipe.
It can be prepared very quickly for unexpected company because you almost always have the simple ingredients on hand. Olive oil pasta recipes are like that.

I made this recipe for my family once after the kids had all rummaged through the kitchen and declared it free of anything good to eat. Ever after they viewed my miracle-working abilities with a certain awe. Enjoy.

Shrimp Fettuccine

1 pound fettuccine, cooked al dente
1 pound shrimp, medium-size, peeled and deveined
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 teaspoons basil leaves
2 medium tomatoes, coarsely chopped
1 bunch green onions (3/4 cup) sliced into 1/2" pieces
1 cup halved black olives
Salt and pepper to taste

Sauté the shrimp just until pink in 1-2 tablespoons olive oil. Remove and set aside.

Sauté the garlic, tomatoes, basil, green onions and olives in the remaining olive oil until the vegetables are tender.

Add the shrimp back in the pan and warm.

Pour the sautéed mixture over hot fettuccine and toss lightly. Add salt and pepper to taste, toss again, and serve with a sprinkling of parmesan cheese, if desired. 8-12 servings.
