Shrimp and edamame Angel Hair pasta


Ingredients

1/2 (16 ounce) package uncooked angel hair pasta
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon chili oil
1 1/2 pounds medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 pound edamame (out of pods)
2 large cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2 cups chicken stick
1/4 cup reserved pasta water
1 cup light margarine
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup chopped fresh basil

FIRST: I prefer to steam my edamame in the pods then pull the beans out. Try it I swear it taste better if you do it this way, you need to do this first.... You wont need all of it probably about 3/4 of the bag
Then Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until how you prefer it. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup liquid.
Heat the olive oil and chili oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Mix in the shrimp, edamame, and garlic. Cook and stir 2 minutes, until shrimp are almost opaque. Remove from heat, and set aside.
Pour the Stock into the skillet, and bring to a boil. Cook until reduced by 1/3. Return shrimp, peas, and garlic to the wok, and stir in the reserved pasta water. Continue to cook and stir until shrimp are opaque. Remove wok from heat, and mix in the butter, lemon juice, and basil. Toss with the cooked pasta to serve.

Great with Garlic bread....
