  1. Prepare pasta according to package instructions, reserving 1/2 cup of the starchy cooking liquid.
  2. While the pasta is cooking, heat olive oil over medium-high heat in a deep skillet. Sprinkle shrimp with salt and pepper on both sides and add to pan in a single layer. Cook until shrimp is pink, about 3 minutes total, turning once.
