Ingredients

• ¼ cup chopped parsley
• 1 (8 ounce) package angel hair pasta
• 1 pound large shrimp - peeled and deveined
• 3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
• ½ cup dry white wine
• 1 teaspoon chopped garlic
• ¼ cup olive oil, divided
• 2 (28 ounce) cans Italian-style diced tomatoes, drained
• 3 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and add 1 tablespoon oil. Cook pasta in boiling water until al dente. Place pasta in a colander, and give it a quick rinse with cold water.

Step 2

Heat remaining olive oil in a 10 inch skillet over medium heat. Cook garlic, stirring constantly, until the garlic is tender, about 1 minute. Do not let the garlic burn. Add shrimp, and cook for 3 to 5 minutes. Remove shrimp from the skillet, and set aside.

Step 3

Stir tomatoes, wine, parsley, and basil into the skillet. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until liquid is reduced by half, 8 to 12 minutes. Add shrimp, and continue cooking until the shrimp are heated through, about 2 to 3 minutes. Serve the shrimp mixture over the pasta. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
