Recipe Monday!

Taking a little break from cleaning my house, I would love to share a recipe with you tonight! I'll tell you this though...I haven't actually made it...it's a recipe that I would like to make. Hopefully I can get around to making it sometime this week or this weekend. It's  "Shrimp Pasta in a foil Packet". Seems to me pretty easy and looks amazing in the pictures. I found this recipe on Pioneer Women's Site just messing around one afternoon. If you try it before I do, I would love to hear if you liked it or not or what you would change! I could see this being made with fresh tomatoes in the summer for a simple summer pasta!

Ingredients

■½ cups Olive Oil
■4 cloves Garlic, Minced
■3 whole 14.5 Ounce Cans Diced (or Whole) Tomatoes
■½ cups White Wine
■2 pounds Jumbo Or Large Shrimp, Peeled And Deveined
■Salt And Pepper, to taste
■Fresh Parsley, Minced
■1 pound Linguine, Uncooked
■Red Pepper Flakes, to taste
Preparation Instructions

Cook pasta for 1/2 the recommended cooking time. Pasta should still be very firm.

In a large skillet or pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and saute for a minute. Dump in the tomatoes and wine. Stir the mixture together, season with salt and pepper, and allow to cook for ten minutes.

Meanwhile, prepare a large parcel of heavy duty aluminum foil. It should be large enough to hold the entire pasta dish.

Throw the shrimp on the top of the pasta sauce. Throw the drained pasta over the top, then pour the whole dish onto the foil. Tightly wrap the foil into a parcel.

Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and keep warm until serving.
Open the foil parcel right before serving. Drizzle a tiny bit of olive oil over the top. Squeeze on lemon juice, if desired.


I hope mine looks like this:
