Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 lb angel hair pasta
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 lb medium shrimp, peeled and deveined (can be cooked or uncooked , see steps for instructions for each)
2 tsp garlic, chopped
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
1 cup chicken broth (can substitute half with white wine to increase flavor)
1/8 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
1 tbsp lemon peel, grated fresh
1/4 cup lemon juice, squeezed fresh
1/2 cup italian parsley, chopped
1/3 cup parmesan cheese, grated

Directions:

Cook pasta according to package instructions and drain.
While pasta cooks, heat one tablespoon of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, shrimp (if using uncooked shrimp), and 1/2 tsp each of salt and pepper. Saute two minutes or until shrimp are barely pink and/or garlic is soft.
Add broth and crushed red pepper. Increase heat to high.
Add cooked shrimp (if not using uncooked shrimp in step 2).
Cook on high heat for 2-3 minutes (just one minute if you used uncooked shrimp earlier), until shrimp are warmed through.
Stir in lemon peel and juice.
Put the pasta in a serving bowl, add the remaining tablespoon olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
Add the shrimp mixture, parsley, and cheese (gradually so as not to clump up the cheese). Toss to mix and serve immediately.
