Brown shrimp courgette pasta

1 shallot, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
½ courgette, cut into small, thin pieces
Pinch of chilli flakes
Pinch of salt
Zest of ½ lemon
100g cooked and peeled brown shrimps
250g pasta (trofie, orecchiette and
conchiglie​ work well)
1 tbsp chopped parsley

Put a large pan of salted water on to boil. Cook the pasta according to the pack instructions then drain, reserving some of the cooking water.

Heat a glug of olive oil in a frying pan and fry the shallot and garlic clove until soft.

Add the courgette, lemon zest, chilli flakes and salt; fry for 2-3 minutes more.

Stir in the brown shrimps (just to heat through, as they are already cooked).

Return the drained pasta to the pan, then stir in the shrimp and courgette mixture. Add a little more olive oil and pasta water to loosen, sprinkle with parsley and serve.
