Cooking Time:
20 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 medium Zucchini, cut into ¼-inch slices
- ¾ pound Shrimp, peeled and de-veined
- ½ tsp Garlic, minced
- 3 ounces Olive oil
- ⅛ tsp Saffron
- ¾ cup Chicken broth
- ¼ cup, chopped fresh parsely
- 1 lb. uncooked fettucini
Instructions:
- Set a large pot of water to boil. Season it with some salt and an ounce of Olive Oil.
- Once the water is boiling, set the fettucini in the pot to boil, stirring every minute or two. Set a timer for 8 minutes.
- In a large skillet, heat 2 ounces of Olive Oil to the pan to get hot on medium-high heat.
