Ingredients:

  • 8 ounces linguine
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 fresh basil leaf (snipped) or 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 – 4 fresh mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 yellow sweet pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 green sweet pepper, thinly sliced
  • 8 ounces shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 can (14.5 ounces) Italian-style stewed tomatoes
  • Parmesan cheese, for topping
  • Fresh basil leaves, for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Cook the Pasta: Start by cooking the linguine according to the package instructions until it’s al dente. Once cooked, drain it and keep it warm.

  2. Prepare the Sauce: In a small mixing bowl, combine the chicken broth, cornstarch, and either snipped fresh basil or dried basil. Set this mixture aside for later use.

  3. Sautรฉ the Vegetables: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms, yellow sweet pepper, green sweet pepper, and minced garlic to the skillet. Sautรฉ the vegetables for about 3 minutes, or until the peppers are just tender.

  4. Add the Sauce: Once the vegetables are tender, add the broth mixture and the undrained Italian-style stewed tomatoes to the skillet. Cook and stir the mixture until it becomes bubbly.

  5. Cook the Shrimp: Next, add the peeled and deveined shrimp to the skillet. Cover the skillet and let the mixture simmer for about 2 minutes, or until the shrimp is cooked through and the sauce is heated.

  6. Serve: To serve, spoon the shrimp mixture over the cooked linguine. If desired, sprinkle some Parmesan cheese on top for added flavor, and garnish with fresh basil leaves for a touch of freshness.
