I was looking on the Internet for ideas for something to prepare tonight that I am at home alone, a dinner only for me. I like zucchine but I was looking for something different... I found this recipe, I read it very quickly and it sounded very easy and quick so here it is my version.
Ingredients: zucchini (cut in slices), shrimps (I only had frozen onces but they worked very well here), garlic, fresh parsley, fresh basil, extra-virgin olive oil, salt and pepper.
Heat some oil (quite a lot actually in this recipe) with garlic in a pan over medium heat, add the zucchini and cook for about 15 minutes, until the zucchini are nice and soft. Add salt and pepper. Add the shrimps and mix well. Let cook until part of the liquid is absorbed. In the meanwhile cook pasta in salty boiling water. When pasta is ready, drain it and add it to the zucchini and shrimps, mix well and serve warm.
I think I will make this recipe again next weekend when someone is back home... and let's see if he will like it.
In one of the comments below I got suggested to use some cream... yes, next time I might try that, I am sure it is very good with cream too. But I have to say this dish is already good like it is, the trick is to use a lot of oil!

ReplyDeleteSembra buonissima..la proverò sicuramente!Io l'unica cosa ci aggiungerei un pò di panna..ma sono sicura che anche così sia buonissima
ReplyDeleteAlessia, you are totally right!
ReplyDeletePaola, grazie del suggerimento, magari la prossima volta provo la versione con panna. Però anche così è buonissima, il trucco è usara tanto olio.
Ciao.
