To get started, I brought a pot of water to boil for the pasta.

I also tried Ramsay's trick for chopping the basil.

It was time to get cooking, so I placed my nonstick pan over medium heat.

To cook the shrimp, I placed a second nonstick frying pan over high heat and added a drizzle of olive oil.
