Number Of Ingredients 11

3 ancho peppers
3 guajillo peppers
4 chile de arbol peppers
2 medium tomatoes (chopped)
1 small onion (chopped)
1 serrano pepper (chopped (optional, for additional heat - or use hotter, like a habanero pepper))
4 cloves garlic (chopped)
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 pound shrimp (peeled and deveined, patted dry)
Salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Rinse the dried peppers (ancho, guajillo and chiles de arbol), then remove the stems and seeds. Set them into a large bowl and cover them with very hot water. Steep for 20 minutes to soften.
  • Drain then transfer the softened peppers to a food processor. Add the tomatoes, onion, serrano pepper, garlic, apple cider vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Process until smooth. Taste and adjust for salt. Strain, if desired, for a smoother sauce. Thin with a bit of water, if desired.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a pan to medium-high heat. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper, then sear the shrimp for 30 seconds per side. Remove the shrimp and set it aside.
  • Add the diablo sauce and reduce the heat to medium. Simmer for 10 minutes to let the flavors develop.
  • Return the shrimp to the pan and toss. Simmer for 1-2 minutes to warm the shrimp and cook it through. Serve.

SHRIMP FRA DIABLO



Shrimp Fra Diablo image

A thick, spicy sauce of garlic, olive oil, and fire-roasted tomatoes is sauteed with shrimp or your favorite seafood. Legend has it that it was named for Michele Pezza, also known as 'Fra Diablo' (Friar Devil), who helped push Napoleon's forces out of Naples. Serve the sauce over hot pasta, or, my favorite, hot couscous cooked with olive oil and garlic.
