Ingredients (20)

  • 13 oz peeled shrimp tail-on, from 24 oz whole
  • 14 oz cooked pasta from about 10 oz dry
  • 0.5 oz parmesan grated
  • 6 oz cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1/3 cup unsalted chicken broth
  • 2 oz onions about half a medium, chopped
  • 2 tbsp white wine
  • 2 tbsp olive oil divided
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 tbsp garlic about 5-6 cloves, finely minced
  • 1/3 cup homemade tomato sauce
  • 1 tbsp Hunt’s tomato paste
  • 1 tsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp Italian seasonings
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp parsley finely chopped
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes

INSTRUCTIONS

1

Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add 13 oz peeled shrimp and sauté for about 3 minutes. Put in a bowl and set aside.

2

Add the remaining olive oil (1 tbsp) and melt 1 tbsp unsalted butter into it. Sauté 2 tbsp minced garlic for about 30 seconds. Add 2 oz chopped onions and sauté for another 2 minutes.

3

Add 1 tbsp tomato paste and stir for 30 seconds or until the paste coats the aromatics evenly, then add 6 oz tomatoes and stir to cook for about 3 minutes.

4

Add 1/3 cup tomato sauce, 1 tsp brown sugar, 1 tsp Italian seasonings, 1 tsp oregano, 1/2 tsp paprika, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and 1/2 tsp salt. Stir everything for 1 minute.

5

Gently pour in 1/3 cup unsalted chicken broth. Add the cooked shrimp back and pour 2 tbsp white wine over it all. Stir, then simmer for about 1 minute.

6

Add 14 oz cooked pasta and, with a pair of tongs, give it all a good toss. Simmer for about 2 minutes or until the sauce becomes thick enough to coat the noodles, then remove from heat.

7

Sprinkle with 0.5 oz grated parmesan, 2 tbsp chopped parsley, and 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (or more if you want it to be spicier). Enjoy.
