Recipe by Woman's Day Kitchen When guests come over, turn to this simple spinach pesto pasta, which impresses with large shrimp simmered in a tantalizing mix of dry white wine and crushed red pepper.

Ingredients

1 lb. pasta 2 tbsp. roasted almonds 1 small clove garlic 1 tsp. lemon zest 4 oz. baby spinach (about 4 cups) 2 tbsp. grated pecorino or Parmesan 3 tbsp. olive oil Kosher salt and pepper 1 lb. large peeled and deveined shrimp 3/4 c. dry white wine 1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper

Instructions

Cook the pasta according to package directions. Reserve 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid, drain the pasta and return it to the pot. Meanwhile, in a food processor, pulse the almonds, garlic and lemon zest until finely chopped. Add the spinach, pecorino, 2 Tbsp oil and 1/8 tsp each salt and pepper. Purée until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary. Heat the remaining Tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the shrimp with 1/4 tsp salt and cook for 2 minutes. Turn the shrimp, add the wine and crushed red pepper to the skillet and simmer until the shrimp are opaque throughout, 2 minutes more. Add the pesto to the shrimp and toss to combine. Toss with the pasta, adding some of the reserved cooking water if the pasta seems dry.
