  1.  In a large pot over medium heat bring the marinara sauce and 500 ml of water to a boil. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add pasta to the sauce and boil it for about 11 minutes. ( this method is the perfect way for an authentic al-dente pasta.
  2. Meanwhile, rinse the shrimp and pat dry. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shallot and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for additional 1 minute. Add the shrimp, and then sprinkle them with salt and black pepper. Sauté, and cook through both sides about 5-8 minutes. Remove to a plate and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat. Add the vegetables, salt and pepper. Cook until the vegetables are hot and lightly sautéed. Return the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 3 minutes. Stir in lemon zest and juice and remove from heat.
  4. Add the pasta to the skillet and toss.
