Preparation
Boil the pasta
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
- Add the pasta; stir gently to separate.
- Boil, 10 to 12 min., until al dente.
- Reserving 1 cup cooking water, drain and toss with a drizzle of oil to prevent sticking.
Mise en place
- Meanwhile, halve, core and thinly slice the sweet peppers lengthwise.
Sauté the sweet peppers & cook the shrimp
- Pat the shrimp dry (remove the shells from the tails if desired); season with the spices and S&P.
- In a large, high-sided pan (non-stick if possible), heat a drizzle of oil on medium.
- Add the sweet peppers and sauté, 2 to 3 min., until beginning to soften.
- Add the shrimp* and garlic. Cook, 1 to 2 min. per side, until opaque and cooked through.
Make the sauce
- To the pan, add the spinach and cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 min., until wilted.
- Add the cream, 2 tbsp butter, ½ the cheese and S&P.
- Cook, stirring often, 1 to 2 min., until slightly reduced.
Combine the pasta & serve
- To the pan, add the pasta; toss well.
- If the sauce seems dry, gradually add the reserved cooking water until you achieve your desired consistency.
- Divide the pasta between your bowls.
- Garnish with the remaining cheese. Bon appétit!
