In this episode I will show you how to make easy and delicious shrimp fra diavolo First we’re going to make the sauce take one medium onion and roughly slice it fry Diavolo is an Italian classic sauce made with tomatoes and chili flakes great for seafood and pasta transfer sliced onion into the bowl and put it aside for now preheat the sauce pan to medium heat pour
Some olive oil and transfer onions in saute it for about 5 minutes until onions become translucent add 1 tbsp of chopped garlic mix it and let it sauté for additional minute add 28 oz of crushed tomatoes 1 tbsp of dry
Oregano one string of fresh basil tear the leaves from the stem and add the stem as well season it with salt and fresh ground black pepper and let it simmer on a low heat for about 30 minutes meanwhile I will prep the shrimp I got
A shrimp with a head skin and tail on and I’ll show you how to clean it first let’s remove the head and then peel off the shell please subscribe to my channel press the Bell to get notified about my beautiful delicious videos carefully remove the tail and shrimp is
Peeled the heads and the skin I’m not discarding I’m going to put it in the zip lock back and put it in the freezer I will use it for my shrimp stock for my next recipe and it’s very important
To devein the shrimp you can remove the vein cutting the back of the shrimp with a pairing knife and remove the vein with your fingertips but for this dish I prefer to slice the shrimp
In half and then clean it on both sides so after the shrimp is cooked it will turn into spiral shape 30 minutes passed get a hand blender and blend the sauce add 28 oz of diced tomatoes this way I’m trying to achieve more rustic texture of the sauce and
We don’t have to blend it anymore season it with some salt and black pepper and and return it back on a low heat for additional 45 minutes now let’s saute the shrimp season it with salt
Black pepper and drizzle it with some olive oil mix it and now let’s sear them preheat the sauté pan to medium high heat pour some olive oil and give a shrimp a quick sear for about 30
Seconds per side the purpose is not to fully cook the shrimp but just to get a nice sear on each side and make sure not to overcook the shrimp it will be the worst to bite into chewy overcooked shrimp transfer the shrimp into the plate or sheet pen and put it aside for
Now now let’s prep other the ingredients get one shallot peel it and finally dice it I got three Calabrian chilies it’s marinated in olive oil it will add spicy smokey and fruity taste to the dish let’s try a
[Music] piece it’s very good I love it take 1/4 of a bunch of of parsley chop it fine and put it aside now let’s cook the linguini pasta bring the water to a boil season it well with
Salt Place Linguini in I’m cooking 8 oz of fresh pasta and you need to cook it just for 2 minutes but if you cannot find fresh pasta you can definitely use dry pasta and cook it by following the package instructions remove the pasta into the bowl you can drizzle pasta
With some olive oil to prevent from sticking and don’t forget to reserve some pasta water all ingredients are ready and now let’s put together this beautiful shrimp fried diavolo get it to pan where I cooked the shrimp pour some olive oil add shallot sauté it for about
3 to 4 minutes add 1 teaspoon of chopped garlic let it sauté for additional minute add 1 teaspoon of red chili flakes calabrian pepper and saute for about 1 minute deglaze the pan with 1 cup of dry white wine here you need to use use expensive one but make sure not the cheap
One cooking one so you want to use something that you’re going to drink add couple ladles of tomato sauce add shrimp pasta pour a half a cup of pasta [Music] water season it with salt and freshly ground black pepper [Music] mix it
Add some more sauce if necessary chopped parsley mix it all together well make sure that the pasta is not dry and nicely coated with this beautiful delicious sauce add half a cup of Parmesano Reggiano and my beautiful delicious shrimp fra
Diavolo is ready plate it and decorate it with some fresh basil as always [Music] enjoy

Lenny, I love to follow you and try your recipes. Please keep them coming.

Unbelievable! I'm gonna go the extra mile and make this, i never really cook but my mother would love this! 😮
Not Italian, so why present it as such?
Hello Lenny, I've just found ur channel! I'm really excited since you have tajine recipes. I just bought one recently but mine is completely cast iron. I didn't realize that until it was delivered. Can't use tomatoes or citrus in cast iron, as you know. I saw your fish recipe. Are there others? I tried to find some on line but they used tajine as a type of cooking as opposed to a vessel to cook in.I looked for one using eggplants. No real luck. Any suggestions? Thank you for your help.😊
