Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange the orange bell peppers, zucchini, and cherry tomatoes on the sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, then sprinkle with smoked paprika and black pepper. Toss everything together to evenly coat the veggies. Roast in the oven for about 20-25 minutes until they are tender and slightly caramelized. This step brings out the natural sweetness and deep flavors of the vegetables, making them a tasty addition to your pasta.

Cooking the Shrimp

While the veggies roast, prepare the shrimp. Toss the shrimp with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 minced garlic clove and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the shrimp in a single layer and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until they turn pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp from the pan and set them aside.

Bringing It All Together

In the same pan, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the rest of the minced garlic and sauté until it turns lightly golden, about 1-2 minutes. Stir in the San-J Tamari to create a rich, flavorful sauce. Add your cooked black pasta to the pan, tossing it well to ensure it’s coated in the garlic-tamari goodness. Gently fold in the roasted vegetables, shrimp, black olives, and chopped parsley. If you like a little heat, sprinkle some red pepper flakes.

For an extra touch of flavor, you can top the pasta with grated Parmesan and fresh basil leaves before serving.

This dish is a perfect balance of smoky, savory flavors with the vibrancy of roasted vegetables and succulent shrimp. Not only does it taste amazing, but the black pasta makes it a visually stunning meal that’s perfect for Halloween. I hope you love it as much as I do!
