1 - 2 medium lemons and one of them grated
1 - 2 Tbsp lemon juice
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 small onion, sliced
3 clove garlic, minced
1 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp black pepper
2 tsp tajin (mexican seasoning)
1 lb uncooked jumbo shrimp, frozen, peeled & deveined
1 lb broccoli florets or cut into thin spears
1 c peas
1 can(s) chicken broth, low salt (14.5 oz)
1/2 tsp crushed red pepper (optional)
1/2 lb linguine pasta, cooked and drained
1/2 c pecans, chopped and toasted or your favorite

Steps:

1. Grate zest from 1 lemon and juice 2 tbsp. Slice the other one in quarters to serve when plated. Boil your water for the pasta, cook according to package and drain.
2. I cooked this in my Ninja but you can cook this on stovetop as well. Set to STOVETOP HIGH to heat your oil. Add your sliced to pot and cook uncovered for 5 minutes till tender. Add your minced garlic and broccoli and cook 3 - 5 minutes longer.
3. Add in your peas, shrimp, seasonings and lemon zest along with lemon juice. Cover pot and bring to a boil. Cook 5 - 10 minutes till broccoli is tender-crisp and shrimp is cooked through. Stir occasionally till ready to serve. You can add your pasta to the pot or serve on plate and top with shrimp & broccoli mixture. Add a slice of lemon to the dish and top with chopped toasted pecans.
4. This is the delicious spice I used with this dish and it can be used with so many other dishes too. It is fruity & spicy with chili pepper and lime.
