This is a really easy recipe and comes together quite quickly. It makes a nice, healthy weeknight meal. I got this recipe from my sister and have no idea where she got it from. Ingredients:
1 lb spaghetti |
cooking spray |
2 teaspoons olive oil |
2 teaspoons blackening seasoning (i use paul prudhomme's blackened steak magic) |
3/4 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes with garlic, drained |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
Directions:
1. Cook spaghetti according to package directions, drain and set aside -OR- **If you're good at multi-tasking, you can cook the spaghetti noodles and the shrimp at the same time and they should both be done at the same time.
2. Sprinkle blackening seasoning evenly over shrimp and set aside.
3. Coat a large, non-stick skillet with cooking spray and add oil. Place over medium-high heat until hot.
4. Add shrimp to skillet; cook 2 minutes on each side or until shrimp turn pink.
5. Stir in lemon juice, tomatoes and pepper. Turn heat down to simmer and cook until thoroughly heated.
6. Spoon shrimp mixture over drained pasta and serve immediately.
