LOL It's not the social stigma it used to was. Cleaning out the freezer I came across a bag of good-sized tial-off shrinp that old enought that I don't remember buying it. So I made this for supper: MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Ancho Chile, Shrimp & Pasta Categories: Pasta, Seafood, Cheese, Citrus, Chilies Yield: 2 Servings 8 oz Long, thin pasta Salt & black pepper 1/2 c Oil; grapeseed or canola 3 cl Thin sliced garlic 1 oz Dried ancho chilies; rinsed, - seeded, deveined 1/2 lb (U-25) raw shrimp; peeled, - deveined, tails off, cut - in thirds Fresh grated Parmesan Lime or lemon juice; fresh Put a large pot of salted water on to boil for the pasta when you start this recipe. Once the water is boiling, add the pasta and cook until al dente. While the water is coming to a boil and while the pasta is cooking, prepare the rest of the recipe as follows. Heat oil in a small skillet on medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add sliced garlic. Cook until lightly browned, then remove with a slotted spoon to a large bowl. Thinly slice the ancho chilies (can chiffonade as you would with basil, just roll up into a cigar shape and slice crosswise). Add the sliced chilies to the hot oil and cook ONLY for 20 to 30 seconds. Remove with a slotted spoon to the bowl with the garlic. Do not over-cook the chilies or they will get bitter. Add the raw shrimp to the pan with the now chile and garlic infused oil. Increase the heat to high, cook for a couple minutes, stirring frequently, until the shrimp is just turning pink. Remove from heat. Add the shrimp and oil to the bowl with the garlic and chilies. Add the drained, cooked pasta to the bowl with the shrimp, garlic, chilies, and oil. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper and toss to combine. To serve, portion out into bowls, sprinkle with freshly grated Parmesan and a little lemon or lime juice. Yield: Serves 2 as a main or 4 to 6 as a side.
