All In the Pot Shrimp Pasta
Are you super busy like me? I do not currently work "outside the home", and often get asked: What do you do all day? Let's see, in between juggling my three children's school and sports schedules, laundry, grocery shopping, taking care of the dog, cleaning, cooking, running errands, managing household finances/investments, volunteering and moving every couple years, I do find a bit of time to work out, eat, sleep and write this blog!
If you are overloaded and overcommitted like me, then this simple one pot pasta dish is a life saver! Feel free to try new ingredients or substitute them to your taste, because like most moms....it is flexible!
12 oz. of your favorite pasta shape - I used Penne
1 28 oz. canned diced tomatoes
2 C chicken broth
1/2 medium yellow onion, diced
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 T oregano
1/3 C basil leaves, cut or torn into strips
1/3 C white wine
2 t kosher salt
1 T olive oil
1 6 oz. package baby spinach
1 lb. raw shrimp (you could also use cooked smoked sausage or turkey sausage cut into 1 inch slices)
Parmesan cheese
Place first 10 ingredients in order into a Dutch oven or large stock pot. Cover and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce to medium-low, and cook covered for 10-12 minutes or until pasta is al dente, stirring every 5 minutes.
Remove from the heat and stir in spinach and shrimp. Cover and let stand for 10 minutes. Stir and top with grated Parmesan.
