Ingredients
Instructions
  1. 1

    To prepare the spaghetti with broccoli and shrimp, first clean the broccoli and get the florets 1. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil, pour in the florets 2 and cook for 5 minutes; they should be tender but still crunchy. Drain the broccoli 3 and set aside the cooking water that you will need to cook the pasta.

  2. 2

    Move on to the flavored breadcrumbs: cut the stale bread into cubes 4, transfer it to a mixer 5 and blend to reduce it to coarse crumbs, then flavor with the grated lemon zest 6.

  3. 3

    Also add the lemon juice 7, the thyme leaves 8 and the chopped garlic clove 9.

  4. 4

    Finally add a drizzle of oil 10 and a pinch of salt. Blend again to mix everything, then distribute the flavored crumbs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper 11. Bake in a preheated static oven at 180°C for 10-15 minutes 12.

  5. 5

    In the meantime, dedicate yourself to the shrimp: detach the head from the body 13, then remove the shell and legs and eliminate the black thread on the back 14. You should get about 200 g of pulp, which you will cut into pieces 15.

  6. 6

    Cook the spaghetti in the broccoli cooking water 16. Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan together with the garlic cloves cut into slices 17 and the anchovies 18. You can also season with a pinch of chili pepper.

  7. 7

    When the anchovies have melted, add the shrimp 19, salt and pepper 20. Sauté the shrimp for 3-4 minutes over medium heat, they should not be completely cooked. At this point add the broccoli 21.

  8. 8

    Also pour a ladle of pasta cooking water 22 and cook for another minute 23, crushing the broccoli with a wooden spoon. Drain the spaghetti directly into the pan with the sauce 24 and mix briefly to combine.

  9. 9

    Turn off the heat and stir in a drizzle of oil 25. Plate and complete with the crunchy breadcrumbs 26. Your spaghetti with broccoli and shrimp are ready to be enjoyed 27!
