Cavatappi with Sesame Shrimp & Peas with Teriyaki & Soy Sauce

This meal I wanted to make with Soba noodles, but I couldn't find them anywhere. I would of gone to the Asian supermarket but it was getting to be rush hour and I didn't want to get stuck in traffic, this weekend I'll venture there or to Whole Foods to buy the soba noodles. This dish did though turn out very well.


Ingredients:
1 teaspoon of sesame seeds(some like them toasted, but for this meal, they don't need to be)
1 tablespoon of teriyaki sauce
1 tablespoon of soy sauce
1/2 lb of shrimp
1 package of frozen peas
1 tablespoon of Parmesan cheese
About 2-3 handfuls of Cavatappi pasta(really how much you want to make, or have leftover)

Directions:
1) Bring a pot of water to a boil and add pasta.
2) First saute shrimp in about a teaspoon of olive oil and toss with sesame seeds. Saute for about 5 minutes or until shrimp are pink.
3) Add teriyaki sauce and soy sauce to shrimp pan and toss around, adding peas.
4) Once pasta is cooked, drain, and toss in with shrimp mixture.
5) Serve with a half of tablespoon of cheese on each platter.

Enjoy!
