8- ounces (225 g) low FODMAP gluten-free spaghetti
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons Garlic-Infused Oil, made with vegetable oil, or purchased equivalent
1/3 cup (24 g) minced chives
1 pound (455 g) large (26 to 30 count) shrimp, deveined, tail on or off
3- ounces (85 g) blue cheese, crumbled
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Low FODMAP hot sauce such as Tabasco or Texas Pete

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti until very al dente (it will cook again in the saucepan). Reserve ¼ cup (60 ml) of the cooking water, then drain the pasta well.
While the pasta is cooking, add the butter and Garlic-Infused Oil to a large saucepan over medium heat to melt the butter. Add chives and sauté for about 1 minute. Add the shrimp and toss until the shrimp just turn pink - just a minute or two. Remove from heat. Stir in cheese and taste. Season with salt, pepper and hot sauce. Add pasta and toss with tongs adding a little reserved cooking water ONLY if necessary to help the sauce coat the spaghetti (I often do not need any at all). Serve immediately.

When buying frozen shrimp, make sure that they are not treated with either sodium bisulfite, an industrial bleaching agent, or sodium tripolyphosphate (STP), a rehydrating agent. Also, some foreign shrimp might also be treated with antibiotics that are banned by the FDA.
