Step 1

Rinse, clean and dry shrimp. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add shrimp to olive oil and butter on medium high heat, flip shrimp after 2-3 minutes, cook another 2-3 minutes, remove shrimp from pan and set aside.

Step 2

Add teaspoon of red pepper flakes to pan that had the shrimp (may have to add more olive oil) over medium- low heat, after a minute add chopped garlic to oil and pepper flakes, after 30-40 seconds add the tomatoes (don’t burn the garlic). If using whole tomatoes crush them with the back of a spoon, while in the pan. Bring heat up to medium, but don’t let it boil. Add salt and pepper. Stir occasionally.

Step 3

While the tomatoes are simmering, cook the pasta. Add the shrimp back to the tomatoes, toss them in the sauce and turn the heat to low. Save about a a half cup of pasta water. Combine the pasta with the sauce, add pasta water a little at a time is the sauce is a little dry, toss everything. Add salt and pepper to taste, add parsley.

Step 4

If using angel hair, don’t over cook it.
