Shrimp with Angel Hair Pasta

Shrimp with Angel Hair Pasta

I keep a bag of frozen shrimp in the freezer at all times.This is a dish that is absolutely delicious. Preparation time is no more than 20 minutes.

Ingredients

12 Large Shrimp
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons butter
2 cloves garlic
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1/4 cup flour
1/8 cup grated parmesan cheese
3 tablespoons chopped parsley
salt and pepper
1/4 pound angel hair pasta

Directions

Get large shrimp. If the shrimp is frozen, thaw in a colander for a good hour before preparing, the shrimp will mostly thaw. At the end of the hour, run the shrimp under cold water to remove any ice  and then pat dry with a paper towel.
While the shrimp is thawing, have a large pot filled with water and 1 tablespoon salt, bring to boil.
Once the shrimp have thawed, heat a skillet with 2 tablespoons olive oil and 3 tablespoons butter. Peel and slice cloves once, drop into skillet and saute until the cloves start to brown. Remove cloves.
Take 1/4 cup flour, add a shake of salt and pepper, and sprinkle the shrimp very lightly with the flour, shaking most of it off before placing them in the skillet. Saute shrimp approximately three minutes on each side. When you have done one side of the shrimp, drop the angel hair pasta into the boiling water and cook for 2 minutes, the pasta and shrimp should be done at the same time. Drain the pasta, add 2 tablespoon olive oil to the pasta and mix in a large serving bowl. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and place on a plate. To the skillet add 2 tablespoons fish sauce, and mix quickly then pour over the pasta. Mix the pasta, with 1/8 cup parmesan cheese and 2 tablespoons chopped parsley. Arrange the shrimp around the edge of pasta and sprinkle with the remaining chopped parsley.

Serve with salad.
