    Grilled Shrimp With Angel Hair Pasta

    Ingredients:

    10 oz. angel hair pasta
    1 Tbs. vegetable oil
    1 tsp. sesame seed oil
    1 cup broccoli florets
    3 cups fresh oyster mushrooms
    1 lb. large shrimp, peeled and deveined
    5 garlic cloves, minced
    1 Tbs. ginger, minced
    3/4 cup chicken broth
    1/4 cup cooking sherry
    2 Tbs. oyster sauce
    1 Tbs. cornstarch mixed with 1 Tbs. cold water*
    1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
    1 Tbs. orange zest
    1/4 tsp. red pepper flakes
    Salt

    Preparation:

    Heat water in a large pot, adding a dash of salt, if desired. Add angel hair and cook until al dente. Drain well.

    Heat oils in a large skillet over medium-high heat and add broccoli, mushrooms, shrimp, garlic and ginger. Saute for 3 to 4 minutes or until the shrimp begins to turn pink.

    Transfer vegetables and shrimp to a bowl or plate. Add chicken broth, sherry, oyster sauce and cornstarch mixture to skillet and cook until thickened, just a few minutes.

    Meanwhile, place equal portions of cooked pasta on plates, top with shrimp and vegetables and pour thickened sauce over both. Top with cilantro, orange zest and pepper flakes.

    *Cooking note: To prevent lumps in the sauce, the cornstarch must be combined with cold water rather than hot.

    Yield: 6 servings
