Preparation steps

1.

Snap off woody ends from asparagus and peel the bottom third of each stalk. Cut asparagus diagonally into small pieces. Rinse, trim and cut chiles crosswise into rings. Peel garlic and finely chop. In a skillet, fry asparagus, chiles and garlic briefly in hot oil. Deglaze with broth and simmer until liquid is almost completely reduced, about 8 minutes. In the last 3-4 minutes of cooking time, add shrimp and cook until opaque.

2.

Cook pasta in salted boiling water until al dente. Drain, reserving some of the cooking water.

3.

Stir basil into asparagus and season with lemon juice and salt. Add drained pasta to pan (along with reserved cooking water, as needed) and toss to combine. Divide pasta among plates.
