1 lb. large peeled and deveined shrimp

~2 cups snow peas (or some other fresh green veggie, through you may have to adjust cooking times)

0.5 to 1 tsp. Tony Chachere's Original Creole Seasoning (or similar spicy-type Cajun/Creole seasoning)

Here is how you make Pepper Shrimp Pasta:

Cook the pasta according to the instructions on the package. Toss with a little bit of olive oil (to prevent the noodles from sticking together) and set aside. In a large skillet, add oil, onions, garlic, and peppers and saute 5-8 minutes until onions become translucent and peppers are mostly cooked. Add the shrimp, snow peas, and spices and saute for about 5 more minutes until the shrimp are pink. Mix pasta with the stir fry and serve, or serve the stir fry over the pasta. Either way this recipe makes about 6 servings- each being about 1.5 cups (or 6 ounces).Number of Servings: 6Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user CINNAMONGIRAFFE.
