Pasta with Garlic, Shrimp and Fresh Herbs

Pasta with Garlic, Shrimp and Fresh Herbs

1 lb pastaDSC_78141
1/2 lb. shrimp, shells removed
3T olive oil
8-16 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
2 C. fresh herbs, chopped (any combination that appeals)
1/2 tsp. Kosher salt
Black pepper
1-2 C. milk or heavy cream
1 lemon
Parmesan Cheese

Cook the pasta according to package directions, add the shrimp during the last two minutes of cooking time. In a small skillet, heat the olive oil and sauté the garlic until very lightly browned. Return the pot of drained pasta to medium heat and add the garlic, herbs, salt and pepper. Add the milk or cream slowly and mix until a little sauce forms around the pasta. Taste and re-season if necessary (it will probably need a little more salt). Serve with a squeeze of fresh lemon and Parmesan on top.
