I make this for my family at least 3 times a month and figured youd all enjoy it...total cooking time is about 30 mins from start to finish...you can substitute spaghetti with othe pastas.
mccormick shrimp scampi sauce
1 lb shrimp peeled/deveined
crushed red pepper flakes
uncooked spaghetti for 3 servings
sea salt
parmesan cheese grated
Boil 3 qrts of water and pour enough salt till its like seawater. Place spaghetti and boil for about 8 minutes where its not too hard but not soft...al dente.
After about 3 minutes place half of your scampi sauce into a pan and warm it up. Sprinkle as much crushed pepper flakes as you want and stir while adding your shrimp into the mix, cook for about 4 minutes or until all shrimp is pink in color. Turn off and set aside, dont overcook shrimp as itll become rubbery.
Spaghetti should be ready so without rinsing it move it to the shrimp scampi mix with a pasta ladle with minimal water in it. After all the spaghettis is transfered spoon in about 3 Tbsp of the pasta water and mix thoroughly. Cover and let it sit for 4 minutes as this will make your sauce thicken up.
Serve onto individual plates and top with the parmessan cheese...enjoy
