Preparation
Boil the pasta
- Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil.
- Add the pasta; stir gently to separate.
- Boil, 8 to 10 min., until al dente.
Reserving ½ cup cooking water (double for 4 portions), drain and toss with a drizzle of oil to prevent sticking.
Mise en place
- Meanwhile, mince the garlic.
- Roughly chop the parsley leaves and stems.
- Zest and quarter the lemon.
Make the pangrattato
- In a large pan, heat 1 tbsp butter (double for 4 portions) on medium.
- Add the panko and ½ the garlic. Toast, stirring often, 2 to 3 min., until golden brown.
- Transfer to a small bowl and add a pinch of the lemon zest; stir well.
- Reserve the pan.
Start the shrimp
- Pat the shrimp dry (remove the shells from the tails if desired); season with S&P.
- In the reserved pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high.
- Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, 3 to 4 min., until beginning to burst.
- Add the shrimp and remaining garlic. Cook, 1 to 2 min. on one side, until partially cooked.
Finish the shrimp & combine the pasta
- To the pan, add the demi-glace, remaining lemon zest, 2 tbsp butter (double for 4 portions), ½ the reserved cooking water and S&P.
- Cook, stirring often, 1 to 2 min., slightly thickened and the shrimp* are cooked through.
- Add the pasta and cook, stirring often, 1 to 2 min., until combined.
- Add the parsley; stir well.
- If the sauce seems dry, gradually add the remaining cooking water until you acheive your desired consistency.
Plate your dish
- Divide the pasta between your bowls.
- Top with the pangrattato.
- Garnish with the lemon wedges. Bon appétit!
*Health Canada recommends cooking fish to a minimum internal temperature of 70°C.
