Tomato Fettuccine With Shrimp and Arugula image

Cooking Light, May 2003. This dish is such comfort food! Fettucine, shrimp, onions and arugula, marry together to make such a nice dish! The fresh tomatoes give it such a great taste and with the peppery flavor of the arugula, it is wonderful! Update: 09/10/2007 ... Chef Wineaux reworked the recipe and she suggested using 3/4 lb of boneless & skinless chicken (cut up the size of shrimp)and sprinkled it with 1 teaspoon of curry powder (you can always use more) and 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes (they like it with a little zip).
