INSTRUCTIONS:
How to cook pasta:

  1. Cook pasta according to package instructions. Reserve some cooked pasta water. Drain the pasta.


How to cook shrimp:

  1. Note: if using sun-dried tomatoes in oil (in a jar), make sure to drain sun-dried tomatoes from oil, before using them. Reserve 2 tablespoons of this drained oil for sauteing the shrimp as described below:
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil (reserved from the sun-dried tomatoes jar - see note above, or use regular olive oil) in a large skillet on medium-high heat. 
  3. Add shrimp with minced garlic.  Cook the shrimp on one side for about 1 minute, until shrimp turns pink or golden brown on that side. While it cooks, sprinkle salt over the shrimp to cover every single shrimp.
  4. Make sure not to crowd the shrimp in the skillet, otherwise moisture will form and shrimp won't sear right.
