spicy shrimp pasta
from http://www.howsweeteats.com/2012/02/spicy-parmesan-shrimp-skillet/
1 pound raw peeled and deveined shrimp, tails removed
1/3 cup olive oil
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons hot sauce
2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 cups uncooked penne
1 bunch fresh broccoli florets, partially cooked**
1 zucchini, sliced and cut in half
**I chop up fresh broccoli and throw it in a pot of boiling water and let it cook for several minutes until it is a bright green color. Drain the water and set to the side. I do this so that when i am ready to cook the rest of the ingredients it doesn't take as long for the broccoli to become soft
In a bowl, whisk olive oil, brown sugar, soy sauce, hot sauce, worcestershire sauce, garlic and red pepper flakes together. Add shrimp to a large ziplock bag, pour marinade over top, then seal bag and shake to coat. Place in the fridge to marinate for atleast 30 minutes, up to overnight.
When ready to eat, bring water to boil in a large pot and cook penne according to directions.
While pasta is cooking, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add some olive oil and then add zucchini and broccoli. Let cook until zucchini is tender, about 5 minutes. Add shrimp and marinade to zucchini/broccoli mixture, then cook shrimp until cooked thoroughly, about 2 minutes per side. As soon as shrimp is finished, add penne into the skillet and toss to coat completely. Serve immediately.
