Preparation
1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
2
On a baking sheet, toss the cherry tomatoes with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the tomatoes burst and are slightly caramelized.
3
While tomatoes roast, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the whole wheat spaghetti and cook according to package directions until al dente.
4
In a large skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the cleaned and peeled shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until pink and opaque. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
5
Drain the cooked spaghetti and add it directly to the skillet with the shrimp. Add the roasted tomatoes (and their juices) to the skillet.
6
Toss everything together gently, ensuring the spaghetti is coated with the tomato sauce and shrimp. Tear or chop the fresh basil and stir it in. Serve immediately.
