¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
salt, to taste

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (28-ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes, preferably San Marzano, drained
1/3 cup olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1/2 medium fennel bulb, fronds reserved, core removed, bulb thinly sliced
8 garlic cloves, smashed
1 Fresno chile, very thinly sliced, divided
1/4 cup dry white wine
12 ounces strozzapreti or casarecce pasta
Kosher salt
1 pound rock shrimp or 1 small shrimp, peeled, deveined
2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Set a fine-mesh sieve over a medium bowl. Working over sieve, squeeze tomatoes to release juices and break up flesh. Let tomatoes drain in sieve, collecting juices in bowl, until ready to use.
  • Heat 1/3 cup oil in a large Dutch oven or other heavy pot over medium. Cook fennel, garlic, and half of chile, stirring often, until garlic is golden and fennel is starting to brown around the edges, 5-8 minutes. Transfer fennel mixture with a slotted spoon to a small bowl.
  • Increase heat to high; cook drained tomatoes in same pot, stirring occasionally, until broken down and starting to brown, about 5 minutes. Add wine, scraping up browned bits, and cook until almost completely evaporated, about 1 minute. Add fennel mixture and collected tomato juices, bring to a simmer, and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, 5-10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until very al dente, about 3 minutes less than package directions.
  • Using a spider or a slotted spoon, transfer pasta to pot with sauce; add shrimp and 1/2 cup pasta cooking liquid. Cook, tossing often, until pasta is al dente and coated in sauce and shrimp are cooked through, about 3 minutes. Thin sauce with more pasta cooking liquid if needed; season with salt. Remove from heat; add butter and toss to combine. Season with more salt if needed.
  • Divide pasta among bowls. Top with fennel fronds and remaining chile and drizzle with oil.

GLUTEN-FREE GARLIC SHRIMP PASTA WITH SPICY TOMATO SAUCE



Gluten-Free Garlic Shrimp Pasta with Spicy Tomato Sauce image

Provided by Megan Mitchell

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 ounces gluten-free short pasta, such as BioNaturae penne or fusilli
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
3 large shallots, halved and thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
One 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes
1/2 cup coconut milk
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
12 ounces (31-40 count) shrimp, peeled and deveined
5 ounces baby spinach
1/2 cup chopped basil, plus whole leaves for garnish

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to the package directions until al dente. Drain.
  • While the water comes to a boil, drizzle a little oil in a large cast-iron skillet and heat over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring often, until golden brown and fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Do not let it burn.
  • Next, add the diced tomatoes with their juices, coconut milk, crushed red pepper and a sprinkle each of salt and black pepper. Stir and reduce the heat to a simmer. Let simmer until the flavors meld and the sauce thickens slightly, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Add the shrimp, stir and cook until they turn pink and firm up, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the spinach and chopped basil. The heat from the sauce will wilt the spinach. Taste for seasoning and add more salt and black pepper, if needed.
  • Divide the pasta among bowls. Ladle some of the sauce over each portion, garnish with basil leaves and serve right away.

PENNE WITH SHRIMP AND SPICY TOMATO SAUCE



Penne With Shrimp and Spicy Tomato Sauce image

Paprika, cumin, and ginger lend their aromatic alchemy to a simple, no-cook tomato sauce. You can use the sauce with a wide range of ingredients(see Variations). One variation is vegetarian. With its competing spices, strong-flavored cilantro, and acidic tomatoes, this pasta dish calls for a simple Italian white--a pinot grigio, for example. Notes: I use fresh tomatoes instead of canned.
