Notes
To save prep time, I call for peeled and deveined shrimp in my super-fast recipes. If you want to start with unpeeled fresh shrimp, you'll need 2 pounds in order to end up with 1-1/2 pounds of peeled shrimp. Also, by draining the pasta and shrimp over the snow peas, you've eliminated the need to thaw and cook the peas. The hot water from the pasta takes care of both!
