Tasty Tuesdays: Shrimp Linguine with Tomatoes & Artichokes

Did you know that March is National Nutrition Month? 

I didn’t know that either! I received an email from Pasta Fits asking if I could share one of their healthier recipes, and since I love pasta and I love shrimp, why not?

They shared 3 recipes with me that were all under 300 calories per serving. That’s amazing! You can go see their recipes for Spicy Ditalini and Chickpea Stew and Green Pasta Puttanesca on their website, but I have included the recipe for Shrimp Linguine with Tomatoes & Artichokes below.

The shrimp adds protein to the meal and the tomatoes and artichoke complement the pasta by adding flavor and color for a beautiful presentation.

Isn’t it great that we can eat healthy meals and enjoy our food? Let me know if you make this recipe. I have not tried it yet, but it looked so good I had to share it!

Total Time

20 mins

 

Course: Main

Cuisine: Italian

Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients

• 4 oz. linguine
• 2 tbsp. (or 1 oz.)extra virgin olive oil
• 20 each (or 8 oz.) medium shrimp peeled and deveined
• 1/4 cup (or 1 oz.) sliced garlic
• 1/2 tsp. pepper flakes (or to taste)
• 1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh tarragon leaves
• 1 12 oz. frozen package thawed or can of artichoke hearts

Instructions

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the linguine according to the package directions. Drain water. Set pasta off to the side.

2. Heat a saute pan over medium heat. (I would just use a frying pan as I don't have a saute pan.) Add the olive oil and shrimp. Cook, stirring until the shrimp are mostly pink with some grey remaining. 

3. Add the garlic and continue to cook until aromatic and starting to brown. Stir in the pepper flakes, tarragon, artichoke hearts, and cherry tomatoes. Continue to cook to heat through. Toss with linguine.

4. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Drizzle with lemon juice. Divide between 4 bowls. Sprinkle with Parmigiano.
