Easy Gluten Free Garlic Shrimp Pasta
- 2 oz gluten free short pasta such as fusilli (I use bionatur)
- 1 tbsp olive oil, so the pasta doesn't stick
- 2 tbsp ghee or butter
- 10 shrimp; peeled, deveined, de-tailed
- 3 large garlic cloves; minced or pressed
- 1 large shallot clove; diced
- 2 tbsp parmigiano reggiano or similar hard white italian cheese
- If your shrimp is frozen, take them out of the freezer to thaw and put them in room temperature water.
- This will help them thaw faster.
- Bring a pot of water to a boil, salt, add olive oil, add pasta.
- cook according to package directions.
- in a large saucepan, melt the ghee or butter on medium heat, about 1 minute.
- add diced shallots to melted ghee, cook until semi-translucent, about 3-5 minutes.
- (NOTE: DO NOT add the garlic with the shallots, the garlic will burn before the shallots cook through.)
- when shallots are semi-translucent, add the garlic.
- cook for another 2-3 minutes and reduce temperature to med-low heat.
- Add shrimp.
- If raw, saute until they turn pink through-out, about 3-4 minutes on each side.
- If precooked, saute for 5 minutes so the flavors can coat the shrimp, but not too long so the meat doesn't toughen.
- drain the pasta, transfer to a medium tupperware container with a lid or large mixing bowl
- toss the contents of the saucepan, pasta, cheese, and salt & pepper, together.
- Open container and enjoy.
- Add more cheese if so desired.
- (I use A LOT!)
