Servings: persons

3/4 teaspoon salt, divided
1 pound medium shrimp, peeled
Cooking spray
1 1/2 cups quartered grape tomatoes
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped pitted nicoise olives
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 garlic cloves, minced
8 ounces uncooked orecchiette pasta (
6 cups trimmed arugula
1 1/2 tablespoons extravirgin olive oil
1/2 cup (2 ounces) grated fresh Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese

1
Prepare grill.
2
Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon salt over shrimp. Place shrimp on a grill rack coated with cooking spray; grill 2 minutes on each side or until done. Cool completely. Combine shrimp, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, tomatoes, and next 5 ingredients (through garlic) in a large bowl.
3
Cook pasta according to package directions, omitting salt and fat. Drain well; cool. Add pasta, arugula, and oil to shrimp mixture; toss gently. Sprinkle with cheese.
4
Wine note: The arugula's light peppery bite, the tomatoes' acidity, and the brininess of the nicoise olives all call for a simple, crisp, bone-dry white wine that will act as a between-bite refresher. Italy is full of such wines. For one that's packed with personality, you can try Terruzi e Puthod's Terre di Tufo 2005, a vernaccia-chardonnay blend from Tuscany (about $24). -Karen MacNeil
