Spaghetti With Summer Squash Tomatoes And Grilled Shrimp Recipes

SPAGHETTI WITH SUMMER SQUASH AND TOMATOES

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat for the spaghetti.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Combine the squashes, tomatoes, onion, garlic, and oregano in a large bowl. Add the olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and give it all a good toss. Dump that out onto a baking sheet and roast for 10 to 12 minutes, until the squash is tender and caramelized. Scrape the vegetables into a large pasta bowl and cover with a plate to keep everything warm.
• The pasta water should be boiling by now. Add the spaghetti and stir to separate the strands. Cook for 8 to 9 minutes, until al dente.
• To finish, scoop out about 1/4 cup of the pasta cooking water, drain the pasta, and toss gently with the roasted vegetables and Grilled Shrimp. Add the pasta water if needed.

Steps:

• Cook pasta according to package, drain.
• In a medium bowl, combine squash, tomatoes, oil, garlic, salt, basil, and pepper.
• Set aside.
• Heat up grill (medium-high heat if you have temperature control, mine has just the one temperature setting).
• Grill the vegetables 3-5 minutes per side until they are slightly softened and browned (it takes more like 20 minutes total in my grill, so you may really need to experiment with cooking times).
• Remove from grill and allow to cool enough for you to handle.
• Cut the veggies into bite-sized pieces.
• Toss pasta and vegetables together in a large serving bowl.
• Top with cheese.
