Ingredients

  • 1 23 oz. jar of Ragu Homestyle pasta sauce
  • 20 jumbo shrimp peeled and deveined
  • ½ cup shredded Mozzarella cheese
  • ¼ cup parmesan grated
  • 1 8 oz. package of spaghetti
  • fresh basil and parsley for garnish

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Bring a large pot of water to a boil
  2. While oven preheats and water boils, add half the jar of Homestyle Ragu Pasta Sauce to an 8x8 baking dish. Then, pat dry the peeled and deveined shrimp and add to the sauce laying flat and try not to overlap. Spoon a little bit of sauce on each individual shrimp. Then, sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese on top of each piece of shrimp.
  3. Place the shrimp in the oven and cook for 10 minutes. Then, place the spaghetti in the pot and cook for 10 minutes as well. Drain the pasta. Add the additional half jar of sauce back to the pasta pot. Place the spaghetti in the pot as well as fresh basil and parsley, and mix well so that the sauce hugs every last noodle.
  4. After the shrimp cooks for 10 minutes increase the heat to 500 degree's and broil for 5 minutes or until cheese is golden brown but not burnt (keep an eye on the cheese, minute-by-minute).
  5. Divide the pasta among four plates. Then add 5 jumbo shrimp on top of each piece of pasta. Top with additional Parmesan cheese, fresh basil, and parsley. Enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • I like a nice thick sauce here to really bake up nicely.
  • Make sure and use fresh Parmesan, not the green can, so it melts perfectly.
