Chopping is strongest, slicing less strong, smashing or leaving whole is least strong.; **If you leave this out, then you can add the shrimp in right away with the pasta water and simmer for 2 minutes before adding the pasta. You may need to use more pasta water.; ***If you don’t like shrimp, make the recipe as, but use cubed chicken or even a flaky white fish instead.; ****The beans add extra fiber, plant protein, and thicken up the sauce a bit. You can totally leave them out if you want a more classic pasta or just use ½ can so it’s less “beany”.
