What better way to start a new year than with some protein-packed pasta. Juicy jumbo shrimp sitting on a bed of your favorite pasta, simmering in a slightly spicy, slight sweetened marinara sauce dotted with chunks of fire-roasted diced tomatoes. Top this 30-minute meal with some fresh basil and a hearty serving of Parmesan cheese and you’re all set.
It’s a pretty simple one to make so let’s get started.
While cooking your pasta until al dente, we’ll make the sauce. Saute your onions, garlic and red pepper flakes then add in the tomatoes and tomato sauce. Toss in the additional seasonings and wine (optional) and simmer gently until it’s nice and thick. Add in the shrimp which you’ll only need to cook for a couple minutes.
Then toss the cooked pasta in with the sauce and enjoy!
