Instructions
- Add 1 lb large shrimp, 4 cloves garlic, and 1 tablespoon jerk seasoning to a small bowl. Stir until the shrimp are all fully coated with the garlic and jerk seasoning.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Once heated, add the shrimp and cook for 3-4 minutes until the shrimp are pink and cooked through. Set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large pot over medium high heat. Add the red, orange, and yellow bell peppers. Cook for 4-5 minutes stirring occasionally until they start to become tender.
- Add ½ lb mini bow tie pasta, 3 cups chicken broth, 1 can full fat coconut milk, 2 teaspoons paprika, and 2 teaspoons jerk seasoning to the pot. Stir well and bring to a boil then cook uncovered for 7-8 minutes or until the pasta is al dente. I recommend maintaining a heavy boil through this process to allow a lot of the liquid to cook off so it’s not soupy when the pasta is done.
- Remove from heat and fold in ½ cup parmesan cheese. Add shrimp back to the pasta and top with the juice from 1 lime. Stir until well combined. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Customize the spice level of the jerk seasoning to your taste preferences. Add jerk seasoning a little bit at a time to keep the pasta from getting too spicy.
