LINGUINE WITH SAUTéED SHRIMP, TOMATOES AND PEPPERS



Linguine With Sautéed Shrimp, Tomatoes and Peppers image

Here's a weeknight classic from Pierre Franey's "60 Minute Gourmet" column that was published in 1991. The recipe may be close to 30 years old, but its flavors and ease of preparation are timeless. First, a quick sauce is made of chopped garlic, red and green bell peppers, canned tomatoes and oregano. As that simmers away, the linguine is dropped into briskly boiling water and cooked for about nine minutes. While the pasta is cooking, the shrimp is sautéed with a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes in a little olive oil until it just turns pink. When the shrimp is cooked through, it's combined with the sauce and a handful of chopped fresh basil or Italian flat-leaf parsley then tossed with the linguine.

SHRIMP, FETA, AND ESPELETTE PEPPER PASTA



Shrimp, Feta, and Espelette Pepper Pasta image

My best French friend Cecile introduced me to Espelette pepper powder and I can't get enough of it! It's a red pepper powder from French commune of Espelette that is mildly spicy and full of flavor. This pasta dish combines Espelette pepper with shrimp and feta and the three ingredients work together beautifully. I like to call this dish Les Pates de Cecile (Cecile's Pasta). For additional flavor and a nice presentation, you can crumble some additional feta over each serving and drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling during the cooking process.
  • Choose Fresh, High-Quality Ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the final dish. Use fresh, flavorful shrimp, colorful bell peppers, and ripe tomatoes.
  • Don't Overcook the Shrimp: Shrimp cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked shrimp will become tough and rubbery.
  • Add the Shrimp at the End: To prevent overcooking, add the shrimp to the pasta towards the end of the cooking process.
  • Use a Large Skillet: A large skillet will help to prevent the pasta from sticking together and ensure that it cooks evenly.
  • Season to Taste: Be sure to taste the pasta before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed. Add more salt, pepper, or red pepper flakes to your liking.
