Spicy garlic shrimp is one of those dishes that comes together in a flash. At home, we love to have it with slices of crusty baguette or with a simple pasta. It's also a recipe that I love to make when I have friends over.

Pasta is one of those dishes that can be a canvas for whatever you want to put on it. Roasted vegetables, sauteed mushrooms, roasted eggplant, even smoked salmon. But the way we enjoy it the most at home, is topped with plump and spicy garlic shrimp.
