Servings: 4
Ingredients:
kosher salt
1 zucchini, sliced into thin rounds
1 summer squash, sliced into thin rounds
1 pint cherry tomatoes
1/2 onion, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, chopped
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano leaves
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
freshly ground black pepper
1 pound spaghetti
1 cup arugula leaves
3/4 cup freshly grated parmigiano-reggiano, plus more for serving
grilled shrimp, recipe follows
2 large cloves of garlic, chopped
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
16 large head-on jumbo shrimp in the shell, shells split down the back
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions:
1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat for the spaghetti.
2. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
3. Combine the squashes, tomatoes, onion, garlic, and oregano in a large bowl. Add the olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and give it all a good toss. Dump that out onto a baking sheet and roast for 10 to 12 minutes, until the squash is tender and caramelized. Scrape the vegetables into a large pasta bowl and cover with a plate to keep everything warm.
4. The pasta water should be boiling by now. Add the spaghetti and stir to separate the strands. Cook for 8 to 9 minutes, until al dente.
5. To finish, scoop out about 1/4 cup of the pasta cooking water, drain the pasta, and toss gently with the roasted vegetables and Grilled Shrimp. Add the pasta water if needed.
6. Grilled Shrimp:
7. Heat a large outdoor grill and wipe down with oiled paper towel to create a nonstick surface. Add chopped garlic to 1/2 cup oil. Season shrimp with salt and pepper and place on grill. Baste with garlic-olive oil and grill 3 minutes each side basting as you go.
