Instructions

  • To make the tomato zucchini shrimp pasta recipe: Cook pasta al dente in a pot of boiling water, according to package directions. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil to a large skillet, on medium heat. Add shrimp, black pepper, fennel seeds, and garlic powder in the skillet and cook the shrimp on medium heat until the shrimp is cooked through – about 3-4 minutes. Remove the cooked shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

  • In the same skillet, sauté the diced zucchini (add a little olive oil if needed) until golden on the edges, stirring from time to time with a wooden spoon. Remove the zucchini to a plate and set aside.

  • Still in the same skillet, add the cherry tomatoes, Cayenne pepper (if using), and vegetable stock, and cover with a lid. Cook the tomatoes until they are blistered, stirring regularly with a wooden spoon.

  • Push the tomatoes on the side of the pan and add cooked shrimp, zucchini, cooked pasta, and parmesan. Give a good stir and reheat for a couple of minutes, adding a little vegetable stock if necessary.

 

  • Serve the tomato zucchini shrimp pasta immediately with a drizzle of olive oil and more parmesan. Enjoy!
