Pasta with Shrimp and Vegetables

3/4 cup of Butter, divided
2 Cloves garlic, minced
20 Fresh or frozen large shrimp
1 Bunch Broccoli Florettes
1 (8 oz.) box of fresh sliced mushrooms
1/2 teaspoon of dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon of dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon of dried basil
1 zucchini, thinly sliced
1 yellow crookneck squash, thinly sliced
1 (12 oz.) box of Fettuccine
Parmesan cheese


Melt 1/3 of the butter in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add garlic and saute 1 minute. Add shrimp and cook until pink, about 2 minutes on each side. Remove shrimp from skillet using a slotted spoon and set aside.

Add remaining butter to the skillet and melt. Add broccoli, mushrooms, oregano, thyme and basil and saute 2 minutes. Add zucchini and yellow squash and continue cooking until the vegetables are tender, about 2 minutes. Reduce heat to low. Return shrimp to skillet and heat until hot again.

Arrange vegetables and shrimp over fettuccine. Top with remaining garlic butter from skillet. Sprinkle with Parmesian and serve immediately.
