Garlic Shrimp in Tomato Sauce
Simple sauteed shrimp really sings when dressed in an herby, savory, puttanesca-adjacent tomato sauce.
Ingredients
-
3 tablespoons olive oil
-
2 pounds large peeled and deveined raw shrimp
-
4 garlic cloves, minced
-
1 large pinch dried red pepper flakes
-
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
-
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
-
2 medium tomatoes (about 3/4 pound), peeled and chopped
-
1 cup canned crushed tomatoes in thick puree
-
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary, or 1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary
-
2 tablespoons drained capers
-
1/3 cup halved and pitted black olives
Direction
-
In a large nonstick frying pan, heat oil over moderate heat. Add shrimp, garlic, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until shrimp are pink and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Remove shrimp from pan with a slotted spoon.
-
Add fresh tomatoes, canned tomatoes, rosemary, capers, and olives to pan. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 15 minutes. Stir in shrimp and simmer until just heated through, about 1 minute.
