Equipment

Ingredients

1 lb raw shrimp peeled, deveined
1 bunch kale stemless, chopped
½ stick salted butter
1 cup white wine dry, crisp
2 cup chicken broth low-sodium
4 cloves garlic chopped
1 tbsp shallot chopped
1 tsp fresh parsley chopped
1 cup olive oil
1 lb spaghetti any thin pasta will work

Instructions

Boil a pot of water & cook spaghetti for 9-10 mins - set aside. Save 2 cups of cooking water in a bowl/measuring cup.
Put olive oil in a large pan and heat. When heated, add shallot - cook for 30 secs to 1 min until fragrant.
While shallot is cooking, pat shrimp dry and then add to the pan of oil/shallot when ready. Season shrimp with salt & pepper and cook about 5-6 minutes or until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through.
Add butter, garlic, chicken broth, parsley, and white wine to the pan of shrimp. Bring to a boil and then simmer for 4-5 mins.
Add kale and cook until it is wilted - about 3-4 minutes.
Add spaghetti and cook for 2-3 mins - toss to mix. If you like your dish more liquidy, add a ¼ cup of cooking water at a time until you find your desired consistency.
