Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb fresh asparagus
1 (16 ounce) package egg noodles
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup butter (butter is better!) or 1/4 cup margarine (butter is better!)
1 large lemon, juice of
1 lb pre-cooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 lb fresh mushrooms, thinly sliced
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Boil or steam the asparagus until tender.
  • Run under cold water to arrest cooking. Drain and cut into 1-inch lengths.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Place pasta in pot and return to a rolling boil. Cook until al dente. Drain well.
  • In a large saucepan (I use a large wok) saute garlic in the olive oil over medium-low heat until the garlic is golden brown.
  • Add butter and lemon juice to the pan. Heat until butter is melted.
  • Raise heat and add mushrooms, sauteeing them until soft.
  • Lower heat to medium-low. Add asparagus and shrimp, and heat both through.
  • Add the egg noodles with the shrimp and vegetable mixture and toss to mix.
  • Top with the Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper. Toss again and serve.
