Today's recipe is not only a Quick Fix, it's also what I call a Friday Night Fix - and it's one of my favorite things to make when I find myself home alone on a Friday night when Steven's playing poker with the guys. It's comforting, satisfying and super quick to make. It's great hot or cold too so it's a multi-seasonal dish. Grill the shrimp outdoors in the summer, if you like! You can make this dish start to finish in just a little more time than it takes to boil the water and cook the pasta.
This is a very versatile recipe. You can easily use more pasta and shrimp to prepare more servings and it would be a lovely addition for a small dinner party - reduce the portions and serve it as a first course to keep it simple and affordable. Steven doesn't really care to eat shrimp, so if I make it when he's home, I simply put half of the pasta in a dish for him and top it with a bit more Extra Virgin Olive Oil, some fresh cracked pepper and some Parmesan cheese - delicious!
