What tastes good, looks good!

It's such an easy, quick dish to prepare and it tastes as good as it looks! 

In a large pot boil water with a pinch of salt, put in thin spaghetti and cook for no longer than 6 minutes to prepare them "al dente". Remove from the stove, strain and keep them warm in the pot together with a little bit of good olive oil.

While the spaghetti are cooking, heat a pan, add about 5 table spoons of your favorite olive oil (there's no other fat on this dish, so go ahead and splurge!), add garlic slices (3 or more gloves) and small shrimp (with or without shell, depends on your likings). Season with very little salt (to be careful on your blood pressure) and lots of pepper or use cayenne pepper if you like it hot. To bring out the flavors, add a good handful of chopped fresh cilantro.

Add the cooked spaghetti to the pan, toss everything. Heat it through. If needed, add some more olive oil and finish everything up with some freshly squeezed lime juice.

Did you prepare a side salad, while the water was heating up? Bene! Now dinner is ready! Serve and enjoy :)
