Basil and tomato shrimp with garlic butter sauce over angel hair pasta.
Ingredients:
  • 0.25 pound angel hair pasta
  • 8 tablespoons LAND O LAKES® Butter, divided
  • 0.5 pound uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 5 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tomato, diced
  • 3 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh basil, plus more for garnish
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
Instructions:
  • 1. Boil a pot of salted water. Cook angel hair pasta until al dente, about 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Drain and keep warm.
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter until it sizzles. Add shrimp and cook in the butter until they turn opaque and bright pink on the outside, about 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer the cooked shrimp to a warm plate using a slotted spoon.
  • Saute garlic in the skillet over medium heat until fragrant, for about 1 minute. Incorporate tomatoes, 6 tablespoons of butter, fresh basil, and extra-virgin olive oil. Mix in the cooked shrimp.
  • Pour the sauce over freshly cooked pasta and top it off with extra basil for a burst of flavor and freshness.
