step 1
Prepare the ingredients
Fill a medium pot (or large for 4 servings) 3/4 of the way up with salted water; cover and heat to boiling on high. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Halve the tomatoes. Quarter and deseed the lemon(s). Peel and roughly chop 2 cloves of garlic (or 4 cloves for 4 servings). Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels. Place in a bowl.

step 2
Cook the pasta
Add the pasta to the pot of boiling water and cook, stirring occasionally, 8 to 10 minutes, or until tender. Turn off the heat. Drain thoroughly and return to the pot.

step 3
Cook the shrimp & tomatoes
Meanwhile, in a medium nonstick pan (or large for 4 servings), heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the prepared shrimp in an even layer. Cook, without stirring, 1 to 2 minutes, or until slightly opaque. Add the halved tomatoes. Cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 minutes, or until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through. Turn off the heat.

step 4
Finish the pasta & serve your dish
To the pot of cooked pasta, add the cooked shrimp and tomatoes, crème fraîche, and the juice of 2 lemon wedges (or 4 wedges for 4 servings). Stir to combine. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired. Serve the finished pasta garnished with the parmesan. Serve the remaining lemon wedges on the side. Enjoy!
