4. Cook the shrimp for about 4 minutes or until they are slightly pink and white, turning once for good color on both sides.



Add the pasta and stir in the pot.

5. When the pasta is ready (al-dente) transfer the pasta into the skillet using tongs. It’s ok for it to be wet, but let it drain a bit after you pick it up.

6. Toss the shrimp, butter sauce from the pan and pasta a few times to mix well, let it cook a minute or two – then serve.

   

   Plate the pasta and enjoy.

7. Optional: grate some fresh Parmesan-Reggiano cheese on top of the pasta.
