How to Make Orange Asparagus Pasta
- Cook 1 pound pasta according to package directions.
- While pasta cooks, heat 1 teaspoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over high heat.
- Add 1 cup imitation shrimp and stir-fry until firm, opaque, and lightly browned (approximately 3 minutes). Remove and set aside.
- Add the remaining 1 teaspoon vegetable oil to the skillet. Add 1 cup chopped carrots and stir-fry for 2 minutes.
- Add 1 bunch (approximately 1 pound) asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces, and 2 chopped scallions. Stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes, until asparagus is tender-crisp.
- Drain the cooked pasta well.
- Return the pasta to the pot. Add the cooked shrimp, vegetables, 1/4 cup orange juice, and 2 tablespoons grated orange zest. Toss to combine and heat through (approximately 2 minutes).
- Season generously with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately and enjoy!
