Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Cook the Pasta

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the julienned red onion and bell pepper. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.

  3. 3

    Add Garlic and Shrimp

    Add minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for an additional minute. Then, add the shrimp and cook until they turn pink, about 3-5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Incorporate Tomatoes and Spinach

    Add the halved cherry tomatoes and fresh spinach into the skillet. Cook until the spinach wilts and tomatoes soften, about 2-3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Prepare Lemon Herb Butter Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix the butter, lemon juice, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Pour this mixture into the skillet and stir to combine.

  6. 6

    Combine with Pasta

    Add the cooked pasta to the skillet, tossing everything together to ensure the pasta is well-coated with the sauce. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to heat through.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Remove from heat and serve immediately, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
