I need some ideas for side dishes!?

LEMON ANGEL HAIR PASTA= HEAT OLIVE OIL IN PAN WITH GARLIC, ADD JUICE OF 1 LEMON AND LEMON RIND - WHEN DONE ADD BUTTER UNTIL MELTED AND TOSS WITH PASTA. YOU CAN ADD FINLEY CHOPPED BASIL OR MINT - LOVELY MILD FLAVOR TO COMPLIMENT YOUR SHRIMP DISH.

IF NOT A SALAD - MAYBE FRESH ASPARAGUS OR BRUSSEL SPROUTS (LIGHTLY COATED WITH OLIVE OIL, SALT,PEPPER AND OVEN ROAST.

If you want to go with a richer side, a good risotto would be delicious, either a traditional risotto milanese, or maybe and herbed risotto with mushrooms, incorporating some dill and maybe a bit of tarragon. Along with that I would probably also serve a small salad as a garnish, baby arugula with citrus/olive oil vinaigrette would add some nice contrast in texture and acidity. Depending on the risotto, if you go with a milanese you could herb the vinaigrette, or even work the feta into the salad instead of directly into the main dish.

Angel hair pasta tossed with only melted butter, Parmesan, and a little minced fresh basil would be fantastic with your main dish.
