   Cook Pasta, Sauté Tomatoes

   Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the farfalle until it's al dente.

   Meanwhile, in a large frying pan, melt the 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the 1/4 cup of tomatoes and sauté them over medium-high heat for about 1 minute, just until they start to soften slightly.

   Cook the Shrimp

   Add the 1 pound of cleaned shrimp to the pan with the tomatoes. Cook them until they turn light pink and are just opaque, which should only take a couple of minutes.

   Season the Sauce

   Season the shrimp and tomatoes with salt and ground pepper to your liking.

   Once the pasta is ready, drain it and add it directly to the large skillet with the tomatoes and shrimp.
