Shrimp Scampi

As you can probably tell by now, I really enjoy pasta!  I have another pasta dish to share with you that is my boyfriend's dad's shrimp scampi recipe.  It is so delicious!  It has a little kick to it so if you like spicy, this recipe is definitely the way to go.  I've only ever had their "full fat" version, so the other night, I thought I would try to lighten it up.  This turned out just as flavorful as the original version, even my boyfriend agreed!

Ingredients:

• 8 oz. Ronzoni Smart Taste Spaghetti
• 1/4 cup Light I Can't Believe it's Not Butter
• 1 small onion
• 1/2 lb. shrimp (Mine came to 12 shrimp)
• 1/2 cup 99% fat free chicken broth
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon A-1 Steak Sauce
• 1 teaspoon Frank's Red Hot
• 1 teaspoon tarragon 
• salt and pepper to taste

Directions: 

1. Cook the pasta al dente. 
2. While the pasta is cooking, heat a large pan over medium heat.  Add margarine to the pan and then add the onions.  Saute the onions until they are semi-soft. 

3. Next add the shrimp to the pan and season with salt and pepper.  

4. Once the shrimp start to turn pink, add chicken broth, Worcestershire sauce, A-1, Frank's red hot, and tarragon.  Simmer over medium heat until the shrimp are cooked through, careful not to over cook them. 

5. By this point, the pasta should be finished.  Drain the pasta and add the pasta to shrimp mixture.  Serve immediately.
