3. Then you need to drizzle these components with your olive oil, some salt, and of course black pepper.
4. Put in your preheated oven and allow it to roast for about 20 minutes.
5. While you are roasting the vegetables, boil some water in a big pot where you add your pasta and allow it to cook till it is moderately soft before you drain – be sure to keep a cup of pasta water.
6. Once the vegetables in the oven are properly roasted, take them out and put them in a blender where you blend till they are smooth – set aside.
7. Add two tablespoons of olive oil into a big pot and boil over medium heat.
8. Then season your shrimp with pepper, salt, paprika and garlic. Once you are done, add it to your pot and cook for 3 minutes, frequently turning. You will notice that it is properly cooked and pink; then you can set aside.
9. Next you need to add your diced ginger and garlic to the same pan and then deglaze with chicken broth.
10. Add the roasted sauce you blended, salt, pepper, chili, oregano, and bouillon powder. Add half of the pasta water and allow it to cook for three minutes.
11. Once this is done, combine the pasta and shrimp sauce and combine properly. If you feel like you need more seasoning, you can add more salt.
12. With all of this done, you are ready to serve and enjoy your meal.
