"If you like the ingredients in the name, you'll love the dish. Freshly grated Parmesan cheese makes it complete."

1/4	cup	olive oil, divided
1		(8 ounce) package angel hair pasta
1	tsp	chopped garlic
1	lb	large shrimp - peeled and deveined
2		(28 ounce) cans Italian-style diced tomatoes, drained

1/2	cup	dry white wine

1	Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and add 1 tablespoon oil. Cook pasta in boiling water until al dente. Place pasta in a colander, and give it a quick rinse with cold water.
2	Heat remaining olive oil in a 10 inch skillet over medium heat. Cook garlic, stirring constantly, until the garlic is tender, about 1 minute. Do not let the garlic burn. Add shrimp, and cook for 3 to 5 minutes. Remove shrimp from the skillet, and set aside.
3	Stir tomatoes, wine, parsley, and basil into the skillet. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until liquid is reduced by half, 8 to 12 minutes.
