Ingredients

  • 3/4 lb. Fettuccine
  • 1/4 Tsp Sea salt
  • 3 Tsp Olive oil This equals 1 Tbsp, but it will be divided. See instructions.
  • 12 Raw Shrimp
  • 2 Tbsp Butter
  • 3 Cloves Garlic Minced
  • 1 Cup Chicken broth
  • 1 Small Lemon Juiced and Zested
  • 3 Tbsp Fresh Dill Chopped fine
  • 1/2 Cup Ricotta Salata Cheese, grated Parmesan cheese can substitute
  • 1/4 Tsp Pepper
  • 3/4 Cup Tomatoes Chopped
  • 8 Artichokes Trader Joes's canned in water. Cut in half.

Instructions

  • Bring large pot of water to boil and add fettuccine, salt and 1 Tsp. olive oil.  Cook until al dente, about 5 minutes. Drain the pasta and add back into pan to keep warm.
  • Clean and devein shrimp.  
  • In a saute pan over medium high heat, add remaining 2 Tsp. olive oil and when hot add shrimp.  Cook 1-2 minutes maximum on each side.  Remove immediately to prevent continuous cooking.
  • In the same saute pan over medium high heat add butter and garlic and allow to cook for 2 minutes.  Then add chicken broth and lemon juice.  Continue cooking until broth is reduced by half, about 10 more minutes.
  • Add fettuccine to each serving bowl.  Divide lemon zest, fresh dill, grated cheese and pepper over each bowl.  Then to each bowl add 1/4 of the shrimp, tomatoes and artichokes and give the ingredients a light toss.  Pour 1/4 of the warm sauce over each bowl and top with additional lemon zest and cheese, if desired.
