HALF THE CALORIES SHRIMP SCAMPI
3 oz extra virgin olive oil
2 lbs large shrimp; peeled and
deveined
1 lb whole wheat linguini
1 1/2 cups dry white
wine
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice (around 1 1/2 lemons)
1/2
cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 1/2 tbsp minced garlic
1
cup halved cherry tomatoes
1 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp
cracked black pepper
1 tbsp finely chopped fresh
parsley
1 tbsp finely chopped fresh
basil
What you do:
Bring a
large pot of salted water to a boil.
Meanwhile, heat
extra virgin olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium high heat. Working in
batches; sauté shrimp 2 minutes on each side or until just cooked through.
Transfer to a side plate and repeat with remaining shrimp. Drain any excess oil
from the pan.
At this time, the water should be
boiling. Cook linguini according to package. Drain, rinse under cold water and
set aside. Drizzle a little extra virgin olive oil to prevent sticking.
Meanwhile, add white wine, lemon juice, chicken broth
and garlic to the sauté pan. Cook over medium high heat until liquid has reduced
by half, approximately 6 minutes. Whisk in the tomatoes, salt and pepper.
Reduce heat to medium and add shrimp and linguini to
reheat. Toss to evenly coat with sauce and heat through for about 1 minute.
Transfer to a large serving bowl or individual bowls.
Sprinkle evenly with parsley and basil. Serve immediately.
