This is always a hit. The best part is how fast you can whip it up! You could just buy roasted tomatoes in a jar, but I think roasting them yourself gives the dish a very fresh, deep flavor.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • cooking spray

  • ¾ pound Roma (plum) tomatoes, halved lengthwise

  • 1 (16 ounce) package angel hair pasta

  • 2 teaspoons olive oil, or more to taste

  • salt and ground pepper to taste

  • 1 pound butter, cut into cubes

  • 3 tablespoons grated red onion

  • 6 cloves garlic, or more to taste, minced

  • 3 tablespoons minced fresh basil, divided

  • 2 pounds shrimp, peeled and deveined

  • 10 fresh mushrooms, quartered

  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder

  • ¼ cup lemon juice

  • cup grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Prepare a baking sheet with cooking spray.

  2. Arrange tomato halves onto prepared baking sheet. Drizzle olive oil over the tomatoes; season with salt and pepper.

  3. Roast tomatoes in preheated oven until edges are crisp, about 35 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board to cool; cut into small chunks.

  4. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook angel hair in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes; drain. Transfer to a large bowl.

  5. Melt butter in a skillet over low heat. Cook and stir onion, garlic, and half the basil in the hot butter until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.

  6. Stir shrimp, tomato chunks, mushrooms, and garlic powder into the onion mixture. Increase heat to medium-low and cook and stir until shrimp are bright pink on the outside and the meat is no longer transparent in the center, about 6 minutes.

  7. Pour shrimp mixture over the angel hair pasta; top with Parmesan cheese and lemon juice and toss to coat pasta completely. Garnish with remaining basil.
