If you have fresh shrimp on hand, wash and clean. If you are using frozen, thaw according to package. I do like to leave the tails on for presentation, unless the full shell is on, then I completely remove the tail.

Once shrimp is clean or thawed place in a bowl and take 1/2 C of the basil pesto and mix gently into the shrimp. I let them marinate in the fridge for about 3-4 hours.

Once marinated, preheat your oven to 350.

Meanwhile, get your noodles boiling, both the noodles and shrimp won't take long. Once the oven is preheated, bake the shrimp for 5- 7 minutes until pink.

Cook the noodles until al dente, drain and place in a saute pan. Add your cooked shrimp and the remainder of the ingredients and gently mix until all incorporated.
