ANGEL HAIR PASTA WITH SHRIMP &
BROCCOLI

8 1/4-inch medium shrimp
3 large garlic cloves
1/2 tsp. salt and pepper
6 tablespoons olive oil
6 tablespoons butter
1 bunch of broccoli, cut up
8 oz. angel hair


Marinade:

Toss together: Shrimp, garlic, salt and pepper, 4 tablespoons olive oil. Marinate the shrimp for 3 hours in the refrigerator.

After marinating, remove the garlic pieces. Add 3 tablespoons butter.


Pasta:

In a large saucepan, add broccoli and bring to a boil. Drain and return to saucepan; cover.
Editor's Note: Do not overcook. Broccoli will continue to cook after removed from heat. It should be a bright green color - emerald green, not olive green. Olive green indicates the broccoli has overcooked.

Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil and butter. Add shrimp and saute, tossing often.

(8) fluid ounces water
(16) fluid ounces heavy whipping cream
(1 1/4) teaspoons) Italian seasoning
(1/2) teaspoon coarse ground black pepper
(1/2) teaspoon crushed red pepper
(2 1/2 teaspoons) fresh chopped parsley
Angel hair pasta

Melt butter over low heat; do not let it get it brown. Add garlic puree and let sweat for 2 minutes add remaining ingredients and simmer for approximately 10 minutes. Amounts in parentheses are for approximately 2 quarts.For garlic, roast 2 to 3 heads of whole garlic. Slice off top until you see cloves and pour approximately 1 tablespoon olive oil over each head. Put in oven at 325 degrees F for around 1 hour or until they smell sweet. After they cool, squeeze cloves out of the papery stuff and coarsely chop.Cut up green, red and orange pepper into strips also red onion (1/4 by 1 inch strips). They measure, per serving, 1 1/2 ounces green pepper, 1/2 ounce red and orange pepper and 1/2 ounce red onion and 1 ounce roasted garlic. These are sautéed with the chicken. This is the only part that is not authentic. Marinate chicken in Marzetti's lite ranch dressing, adding 1 tablespoon garlic puree and fresh parsley. Use fresh chicken tenderloin strips. There are 5 of these per serving. You will cook the sauce while that simmers. Saute chicken and veggies and toss with the amount of sauce ( approximately 6-8 fluid ounces per serving) toss hot angel hair pasta in. If you want less fat, evaporated milk also works in place of the cream. Mix pasta and sauce together. Place in dish and top with chicken strips and pepper garnish.
