ONE POT PESTO PASTA (WITH OVEN BAKED SHRIMP)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a large bowl add thawed shrimp. Add olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, chili powder, and garlic. Toss until all the shrimp is coated.

• Add ½ cup of the pesto sauce and gently stir to combine with the pasta. Add more to taste, or save to use for another dish. Add shrimp back to the pan, toss to combine.
