I made another great recipe last night 
What am I going to do when I have to go back to school this weekend and I don’t have access to unlimited free food? I eat well when I am at school, but not nearly as well as at home. I can’t afford to eat fresh seafood every night and go to Whole Foods everyday like I can when I am here. I guess it will be back to the staples…
Enough rambling… Onto some food!
Shrimp Fra Diavolo
Ingredients
- 1 pound large shrimp, peeled, deveined
- 1 teaspoon salt, plus additional
- as needed
- 1 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper flakes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil, plus 1 to 2 tablespoons
- 1 medium onion, sliced (I diced my onion; I don’t like the big chunks)
- 1 (14 1/2-ounce) can diced tomatoes
- 1 cup dry white wine
- 3 garlic cloves, chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano leaves (I used fresh)
- 3 tablespoon chopped fresh Italian parsley leaves
- 3 tablespoon chopped fresh basil leaves
- Parmesan cheese
Directions
Toss the shrimp in a medium bowl with 1 teaspoon of salt and red pepper flakes. Heat the 3 tablespoons oil in a heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and saute for about a minute, toss, and continue cooking until just cooked through, about 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the shrimp to a large plate; set aside. Add the onion to the same skillet, adding 1 to 2 teaspoons of olive oil to the pan, if necessary, and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes with their juices, wine, garlic, and oregano. Simmer until the sauce thickens slightly, about 10 minutes. Return the shrimp and any accumulated juices to the tomato mixture; toss to coat, and cook for about a minute so the flavors meld together. Stir in the parsley and basil. Season with more salt, to taste, and serve.
Those shrimp were MASSIVE. That is a full size skillet!
I served it over fresh whole wheat pasta with some parmesan cheese. Delicious!
