Shrimp & Kale Angel Hair Pasta- healthy and perfect for summer!

I’mmmmmmmm baaaaack! Did you miss me?

Jumping back into the swing of things after a very long hiatus I am pleased to share my simply delicious Shrimp & Kale Pasta.

Summer Shrimp & Kale Pasta

This simple & healthy pasta dish is the perfect meal served hot or cold and pairs perfectly with a nice chardonnay. Package it up and take it with you on that outdoor concert you have planned or simply for a nice light dinner on the back patio watching the sunset….perfect!

Here’s what you need:

2 lbs Medium sized shrimp (peeled & deveined)

1 bunch Kale greens

1 large can diced tomatoes (juice drained)

3 shallots (diced)

1 box angel hair pasta (whole grain works well)

Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Kosher/Sea Salt

3 Garlic cloves diced/crushed

1 lemon

Here’s what you do:

1- Boil pasta in salted water until it’s just under al dente (about 2 minutes less than what the instructions call for)

2- Once done, drain and rinse pasta in cold water, set aside

3- In a sauce pan on med-high heat, add 3 tablespoons of the oil

4- Add to pan garlic, shallots, and 1 tsp of salt and saute until translucent

5- Add to pan shrimp, saute until light pink. Remove from pan and set aside

7- Add to pan kale greens, saute until wilted (adding a bit more oil if leaves begin to stick to pan)

8- Add to pan pasta & tomatoes

9- Once heat is well-distributed to pasta, add the shrimp back to the pan and the juice of the whole lemon. Mix well for even distribution off all ingredients

10- Finish by drizzling additional oil on top

Enjoy!

Make it a Great Summer Pasta Tasting Day!
