âWhen I first made this,â writes Linda O'Brian of Girard Pennsylvania, âmy husband was surprised it was a light recipe. We enjoy it often.â She adds, âSometimes I add feta cheese; a small amount can really change the flavor.â Ingredients:
6 ounces uncooked angel hair pasta |
6 green onions, thinly sliced |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1 tablespoon butter |
1 pound uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined |
3 tablespoons lemon juice |
4 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese, cubed |
1/2 cup fat-free half-and-half |
2 tablespoons snipped fresh dill |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Cook pasta according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet, saute onions and garlic in butter for 1 minute. Stir in shrimp and lemon juice; cook 4-5 minutes longer or until shrimp turn pink. Remove and keep warm.
2. In the same skillet, cook and stir cream cheese and half-and-half until blended. Stir in dill and salt. Return shrimp mixture to the pan; heat through. Drain pasta; toss with shrimp mixture. Yield: 4 servings.
