Shrimp and Pepperoncini Whole Wheat Pasta

Ingredients:

1 Pound Whole wheat linguini, cooked "al dente"

12 Tiger Shrimps, cleaned and de-veined tail off cut in half

3 Tablespoon Garlic, sliced

1 Whole Garlic clove

1/2 Pepperoncini pepper

1/2 Cup Arugula

2 Tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil

1/4 Cup Cherry tomatoes, cut in half

1 Tablespoon Fresh flat leaf parsley

1/4 Cup Extra virgin olive oil

1/4 Cup Vegetable stock 


Instructions:

In a large sauté pan place 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, clove of garlic, and pepperonici pepper, cook at low temperature for 5 minutes until the oil is infused with the flavors.

Disregard pepperonici and garlic clove. Raise the temperature at high heat add the shrimp garlic slices sauté for 1 minute, until golden brown. 

Add the cherry tomatoes sauté for 1 minute add the whole wheat pasta cooked al dente, vegetable stock and arugula. 

Cook for a couple of minutes until the sauce reduces and everything is incorporated. 

Add Salt and pepper to taste 

Tips:

Place the pasta in the center of the plate top with the sauce parsley and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and serve hot. You can use dried red pepper flakes instead of pepperonicini. You can always add a little bit of parmesan cheese for an extra zing.
