Shrimp Fra Diavolo

A simple and spicy dish that will impress your friends. It’s delicious; I like to serve it over low carb pasta, making it truly Atkins Friendly!

Ingredients

  • 1 lb peeled large shrimp
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3 tsp dried crushed pepper flakes
  • 3-5 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, sliced
  • 1 (15 oz) can diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup dry white wine
  • 3 garlic cloves, chopped
  • 1/4 tsp dried oregano leaves
  • 3 tbsp chopped fresh Italian parsley
  • 3 tbsp chopped fresh basil leaves

Directions

Step 1

Toss the shrimp in a medium bowl with 1 teaspoon of salt and red pepper flakes.

Step 2

Heat the 3 tablespoons oil in a heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and sauté for about a minute, toss, and continue cooking until just cooked through, about 1 to 2 minutes more. Transfer the shrimp to a large plate; set aside.

Step 3

Add the onion to the same skillet, adding 1 to 2 teaspoons of olive oil to the pan, if necessary, and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 4

Add the tomatoes with their juices, wine, garlic, and oregano. Simmer until the sauce thickens slightly, about 10 minutes.

Step 5

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 over spaghetti.
