Dwight's Gamberi Fra Diavlo
- 12 extra large shrimp
- 2 cloves of garlic (crushed)
- 2 scallions chopped
- 12 cherry tomatoes... sliced in half
- 2 tbsps fresh olive oil (1-2tbsp)
- 3/4 cup shredded or grated parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp crushed red pepper
- 1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper
- 1/4 tsp white pepper (optional)
- 1/2 cup chopped broccoli (optional
- 1/2 cup diced red bell pepper
(Note... as pasta cooking times vary... may need to start heating water for pasta before starting the shrimp as they cook up pretty quickly)
In a large pan, heat olive oil to a medium. Add in shrimp, garlic... season with pepper mix (tsp of crushed red pepper, 1/4 tsp of black pepper and optionally 1/4 tsp of white pepper)...again, this is a "season to taste" recipe! Some folks like it spicier, so season to taste. If adding broccoli or red peppers, add them into the mix and add 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil. Reduce heat to medium low and let simmer for a 6-7 minutes. Add in sliced tomatoes... cooking them for only a couple minutes. Turn off heat and top with chopped scallions and parmesan cheese... It's now ready to be a "topper" to your favorite pasta. We love it over fettuccini, penne or sometimes with cheese ravioli!
Enjoy with a glass of Amista Tres.
