Shrimp Fra Diavolo
Serves 4
Ingredients
1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
8 tbsp olive oil, divided
2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 jar Otamot Spicy Sauce
1 pkg spaghetti
Kosher salt, to taste
Parmigiano Reggiano cheese
2 tsp parsley, minced
Preparation:
- Put the shrimp in a bowl and toss with 4 tablespoons of olive oil, crushed red pepper flakes and a generous pinch of kosher salt. Allow to marinate for 20-30 minutes.
- Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil on high heat.
- Heat a large sauté pan on medium high heat. Add the remaining 4 tablespoons of olive oil and heat for one minute. Add the shrimp to the pan. This step can be done in batches, if necessary. Sauté until lightly browned, approximately 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the shrimp from the pan and set aside in a bowl.
- With the oil that remains in the pan, add the sliced garlic and quickly sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and add the jar of Otamot Spicy Sauce to the pan and stir to incorporate.
- Once the water is boiling, add the package of spaghetti and cook per the instructions. Once cooked, drain and reserve 1 cup of the pasta cooking water.
- Add the cooked spaghetti to the Spicy Sauce along with a ½ cup of the reserved pasta water. Stir to combine everything. If the sauce is too thick, add a little more of the pasta water until you achieve the desired consistency.
- Add the shrimp back to the pan and stir to combine.
- Divide amongst the serving dishes and garnish with a generous grating of Parmigiano Reggiano cheese and the minced parsley.
