How to Make Shrimp Asparagus And White Bean Fettuccine

  1. Cook 8 ounces of spinach fettuccine according to package directions.
  2. While the pasta cooks, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 cup of chopped asparagus and 1/2 cup of chopped onion. Sauté for 3-5 minutes, until tender-crisp.
  3. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute more.
  4. Stir in 1 pound of peeled and deveined shrimp, 1 teaspoon of dried oregano, and a pinch of red pepper flakes.
  5. Cook until shrimp is pink and opaque, about 3-5 minutes. Do not overcook.
  6. Add 1/4 cup of fresh orange juice and 1 teaspoon of lemon zest.
  7. Roughly mash about 1/4 cup of cannellini beans (about 1/4 of a 15-ounce can).
  8. Stir the mashed beans and the remaining 3/4 cup of cannellini beans into the skillet. Cook for 3-5 minutes over medium heat, stirring frequently, until heated through.
  9. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  10. Serve the shrimp and vegetable mixture over the cooked fettuccine. Garnish with lemon wedges and extra black pepper.
