Shrimp Linguine Recipe

by Bombippy.com

Shrimp Linguine is a relatively simple but an elegant seafood pasta. It is different enough to be special but easy enough to be humble.

Ingredients:

1 lb of fresh Tiger shrimp

6 cloves garlic, finely chopped

1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil

6 tbsp chopped fresh flat-leaf (Italian) parsley

1 1/2 cups canned diced tomatoes

1/2 cup dry white wine

sea salt and freshly ground pepper

1lb (500g) of linguine


Preparation:

• Remove shells from shrimp and rinse thoroughly in cold water.

• Combine the oil, garlic and half of the parsley in a deep skillet. Turn the heat to medium-low and sauté gently until the garlic is soft but not coloured. The aroma from the pan at this point is incredible.

• Add the diced tomatoes to the pan. Let simmer over medium-low heat, uncovered, until they form a fairly thick sauce (about 10 minutes).

• Pour in the wine and continue to sauté until the alcohol is evaporated (3 minutes).

• Add 1/2 teaspoon of salt and the shrimp. Stir and cover the shrimp until they begin to curl and turn a pinkish/red colour (3 minutes).

• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water (5 litres) to a boil. Add the linguine and a teaspoon of salt and stir at once. Cook over high heat and stir occasionally with a wooden spoon until the pasta is al dente (about 7 minutes).

• Drain the pasta and add it to the pan with the shrimp sauce. Toss the pasta and sauce together. Serve immediately, sprinkled with the rest of the parsley and some ground pepper.

• Serve with a nice Italian white wine.

*Here I'd like to tell you about my favorite diet program that uses a lot of the healthy lower GI foods: Isabel de los Rios' 'The Diet Solution Program'.

The Diet Solution Program favours a long term health orientated approach to fat loss, but not offering anyone a quick fix to their weight troubles. It has loads of valuable data and research to support its approach. I personally investigated the program thoroughly and my mum has been using it for a while now. I have to say she got some great results.

The nutrition plan is one of the healthiest we have seen, a strong core focus on vegetables, fruits, vitamin dense foods, lean proteins, select dairy produce and a clear approach to not expecting one diet to work for all body types. So give it a try and let me know how you’re doing.*
