Simple Way to Putting Pink Dye Over Green Hair

Garlic Angel Hair Shrimp

The first thing you have to do to go from green to pink hair is to use a clarifying shampoo to fade the green pigments.

Recipe Summary Garlic Angel Hair Shrimp

This was inspired by one of my favorite restaurant pasta dishes. I keep the lemon separate until the end due to a picky family member, but you could add it earlier if everyone likes lemon. Do not use pre-cooked shrimp and don't overcook the shrimp.

Ingredients | Putting Pink Dye Over Green Hair

½ (16 ounce) package angel hair pasta

¼ cup butter, divided

1 (16 ounce) package frozen peeled-and-deveined shrimp

½ cup diced onion

2 teaspoons minced garlic

¾ cup diced tomatoes

1 bunch fresh asparagus spears, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces

salt to taste

¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese, or to taste

4 wedges lemon (Optional)

Directions

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook angel hair in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain, reserving 1 cup of the water.

Melt 1 tablespoon in a large skillet over high heat. Saute shrimp in hot butter until no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Remove shrimp with a slotted spoon to a bowl, retaining liquid in the skillet.

Reduce heat to medium-high. Cook onion and garlic in the retained liquid in the skillet until the onions are translucent 5 to 7 minutes. Stir tomatoes into the onion mixture; cook and stir until the tomatoes soften, about 5 minutes.

Stir asparagus into the tomato mixture and add the reserved water from cooking the pasta; bring liquid to a simmer and cook until the asparagus is tender, about 5 minutes. Add the shrimp and angel hair pasta; stir. Cook until the shrimp is completely opaque in the middle, 2 to 3 minutes more. Season with salt and garnish with Parmesan cheese and lemon wedges.
