Shrimp With Angel Hair Pasta Recipe

If you are looking for a meal for two that would be perfect for a valentine's day meal, an anniversary dinner, or just a quick and easy supper on a busy day, you can't go wrong with this recipe from tonya. It will fit just about any occasion, and it is incredibly fast and easy. And keep in mind that the recipe can be doubled or tripled for a larger family meal or dinner party. As far as the number of shrimp go, use your own best judgment. The serving-size recommended by the american heart association is 3 ounces (cooked) per person, but it depends on your appetites. On average, there are about 31 to 35 shrimp in a pound of large shrimp, so 8 ounces would probably be more than enough for two people. Use fresh or dry angel hair pasta (capelli d'angelo), or use capellini, which is just a bit thicker. Thin spaghetti or similar strands would work as well. Add a fresh tossed green salad and a few warm crusty rolls or garlic bread, and you'll have a perfect dinner for two with very little effort
