Shrimp Fra Diavolo

Well I have had a very busy week and it doesn't look like its slowing down. We have just been working on a huge project for work, so it early to rise and late to get home. But, I still want to be able to cook a decent dinner for Brant. Well last night I grabbed a recipe from one of my Cooking Light magazines - Shrimp Fra Diavolo.

This was really delicious and have a GREAT flavor! I would definitely recommend it!!!

Preparation

1. Cook pasta according to package directions, omitting salt and fat. Drain; keep warm.

2. While pasta cooks, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic and shrimp; sauté or 3 minutes or until shrimp are done. Remove from pan; keep warm.

3. Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil and onion to pan; sauté 5 minutes or until softened. Stir in remaining 1 tablespoon garlic, pepper, basil, and oregano; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly.
