"Orecchiette with Shrimp, Spinach, and Mushrooms. [Photographs: Yasmin Fahr] Earthy, meaty mushrooms, tender shrimp, and silky strands of spinach are the stars of this easy, one-pot pasta dish. A perfect choice for a weeknight dinner, this recipe comes together in less than 30 minutes and makes minimal mess as the action occurs in a single pan. Why this recipe works: * Cooking the mushrooms first until golden, then setting them aside until the end, ensures that they develop a rich flavor and don't become soggy in the sauce. * Using a dry white wine to deglaze the pan after cooking the mushrooms (scraping up any brown bits on the bottom of the pan) adds extra flavor to the sauce. * The heat from the pasta cooks the shrimp, making it easy to cook them perfectly without fear of overcooking. Every recipe we publish is tested, tasted, and Serious Eats-approved by our staff. Never miss a recipe again by following @SeriousRecipes on Twitter!..."
