I am not a chef, by any means, but I do enjoy trying new recipes. This is a collection of my latest favorites and tried and true family recipes. All have been husband approved!

Shrimp Pasta (in a Foil Package)



Ingredients

½ cups olive 0il
4 cloves garlic, minced
3 whole 14.5 ounce cans diced tomatoes
½ cups white wine
2 pounds jumbo or large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 Tbs butter
salt and pepper, to taste
fresh parsley, Minced
1 pound linguine, uncooked
red pepper flakes, to taste


Preparation Instructions

Cook pasta for 1/2 the recommended cooking time. Pasta should still be very firm.

In a large skillet or pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and saute for a minute. Dump in the tomatoes and wine. Stir the mixture together, season with salt and pepper, and allow to cook for ten minutes.

Meanwhile, prepare a large parcel of heavy duty aluminum foil. It should be large enough to hold the entire pasta dish.

Throw the shrimp on the top of the pasta sauce. Throw the drained pasta over the top, then pour the whole dish onto the foil. Tightly wrap the foil into a parcel.

Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and keep warm until serving.

Open the foil parcel right before serving. Drizzle a tiny bit of olive oil over the top. Squeeze on lemon juice, if desired.

*Note: I realized that I didn't have a BIG roll of aluminun foil to wrap the pasta in. And, not wanting to fool with it, I just continued cooking it (covered) on the stove top for about 10-15 min. I also added 2 Tbs of butter while cooking. And right before serving I put freshly grated Parmesan cheese on top.
