One of my favorite pasta dishes is the Shrimp Fra Diavolo or the “shrimp brother devil”, this spicy seafood tomato sauce is great with almost any pasta, even rice; the spiciness matches very well with the natural sweetness of the shrimp. It is also very easy and fast to make, enjoy!
You need:
- 1 pound shrimp
- 1 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1 tsp salt
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 sweet onion
- 1/2 tsp dried oregano
- 3 garlic cloves
- 1 cup white wine
- 1 can crushed tomatoes
How to make this:
- Peeled and deveined the shrimps, pad them dry completely, toss them in the red pepper flakes, salt, and olive oil
- Heat up the pan on high, sear the shrimps on a single layer for 1 min each
- Take out the shrimps, add a little more oil. Chop the onion, mince the garlic, cook them in the same pan until they turn translucent
- Deglaze the pan with the white wine, let it cook for about 2 min, then add the crushed tomatoes and oregano
- Let the sauce simmer for 5 min, then add the shrimps and let them cook in the sauce for another 2 min
- Serve it with some linguine and chopped Italian parsley
