    Add all ingredients together in a large bowl, and toss until evenly combined.  Serve immediately, garnished with extra Parmesan cheese and freshly-cracked black pepper if desired.

  2. 2

    Sprinkle shrimp evenly on both sides with the Italian seasoning, and a few generous pinches of salt and pepper.
