Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Shrimp Veggie Pasta Fresca.
Step 1
To start your delicious shrimp pasta dish, grab a large skillet and warm up some soybean oil over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Once the oil is shimmering, toss in the chopped garlic and let it sauté for about two minutes, stirring occasionally until it releases a wonderful aroma that fills your kitchen.
Step 3
Next, add the shrimp along with a splash of fresh lemon juice and a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for a hint of heat.
Step 4
Cook this vibrant mixture for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the shrimp turn a lovely pink and are perfectly cooked through.
Step 5
Now it’s time to introduce some color and crunch! Add in the matchstick carrots, edamame, bell pepper, and cherry tomatoes.
Step 6
Stir everything together and cook until the carrots are tender, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.
Step 7
Once your veggies are just right, gently fold in the cooked pasta, seasoning it with sea salt and black pepper to taste.
Step 8
For that extra touch of flavor, sprinkle in some shredded Parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, and a bit of lemon zest.
Step 9
Toss everything together until it’s heated through and the cheese is melting into the mix.
Step 10
Serve your pasta hot, and don’t hesitate to add a little more Parmesan on top if you’re feeling indulgent.
Step 11
Enjoy every bite of this delightful dish that’s sure to impress!.
