Sautéed Shrimp with Basil and Cherry Tomatoes

This is such a simple recipe but still has great flavor and easy ingredients. We added some Pasta Roni to ours. Any kind of light pasta would do well (maybe a lemon garlic sauce?). Also, I have no idea what clam broth is. Anyone? 
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1.5 lb large shrimp, peeled, deveined
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
    1/3 cup finely chopped fresh basil
  • 1/3 cup chicken or clam broth
  • 1/2 tsp freshly gated orange zest
  • 1/2 tsp salt
In a 14-inch non-stick skillet, heat the oil over low heat. Add the shrimp and garlic and saute until lightly colored, but not cooked through, about 1 minute. 

Add the tomatoes, basil, broth, orange zest and salt and cook, stirring frequently, until the shrimp are just cooked through and the tomatoes have started to collapse, about 2 minutes. 

Serves 4

Total Time: 5 minutes
