ingredients
1 tablespoon butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 can (15 ounce size) low sodium chicken broth
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 pound medium shrimp shelled and deveined
4 cups hot cooked angel hair pasta
directions
In a saucepan, melt the butter and stir in the garlic over medium heat. Don't let the garlic burn, you just want it to start to soften and become fragrant.
Stir in the parsley, lemon juice, crushed red pepper, and all except 1/4 cup of the broth. Stir to combine and bring to a boil over medium high heat.
Mix the remaining chicken broth with the cornstarch until smooth. Reduce the heat on the pan to medium and stir in the cornstarch slurry. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture is thick.
When the sauce has thickened, stir in the shrimp and coat thoroughly with the sauce. Cook for 3-5 minutes or until the shrimp are pink and cooked. Be sure to stir occasionally so the shrimp cook evenly. Do not overcook or the shrimp will be tough. Season to taste with salt and pepper if needed.
Place the cooked angel hair pasta in a large bowl and toss with the shrimp sauce.

Instead of using cornstarch to thicken it I added a dose of heavy whipping cream to give it a little extra richness and thickness.

This is a nice light pasta recipe. I'll try scallops in it next time
