Lemony Pasta Recipe With Roasted Shrimps is made using spaghetti pasta to which lemon zest and lemon juice is added. The shrimps are roasted separately in an oven and then tossed into cooked pasta. Spaghetti pasta is a staple food of Italian cuisine.

This pasta tastes and smells divine. When I was making the lemon zest, the entire kitchen was smelling divine due to the fresh fragrance of lemon. Make sure to cook the pasta al-dente. While boiling pasta add salt to boiling water. Salt helps the pasta to better absorb the sauce. Also boil the pasta in sufficient water as too little water will make the pasta sticky. Do not break the pasta while boiling.

Cook this pasta for New Years party or any party like birthday or anniversary and impress your guests. Pair Lemony Pasta Recipe With Roasted Shrimps with Red Wine Sangria Cocktail Recipe and make a truly delicious celebratory meal.
