Linguine with Garlic and Shrimp

Recipe submitted by DaVita dietitian Cesiah from Florida.

Portions: 4

Serving size: 2 cups

Ingredients

• 2-1/2 quarts water
• 3/4 pounds linguine pasta, uncooked

Preparation

1. Boil water in a large pot.  Add pasta and cook for 10 minutes or until tender.
2. While pasta is cooking, separate garlic cloves, leaving skin on. Heat cloves in a frying pan over medium heat, stirring frequently. Garlic is ready when it darkens and becomes soft to touch. Skin will be easy to remove. Remove garlic from pan and peel off skin. 
3. Heat olive oil in the frying pan and return peeled garlic to the pan. Cook garlic until golden. (Cloves can be cut in half or left whole).
4. Add parsley and shrimp and cook 1 to 2 minutes, until shrimp turns pink.
5. Drain pasta and reserve 1 cup of liquid. Add pasta to pan with shrimp and garlic. Mix all ingredients together and add the reserved cup of liquid.
6. Add lemon juice, black pepper, mix and serve.

This is a very easy and tasty recipe. I've made it several times and serve it with French bread.
