Shrimp Capellini Recipes

Steps:

• Cook the capellini in a large pot of boiling salted water until tender, 7-10 minute.
• Drain and rinse in cold water.
• Blanch the broccoli in boiling water for 2-3 minute.
• Drain and run under cold water.
• Toss all of the ingredients together in a large bowl and serve.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high. Add bell peppers, and cook, tossing, until crisp-tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Add shrimp, and cook, tossing, until opaque throughout, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in salami and pepperoncini; season with salt and pepper.
• Cook pasta until al dente; drain, and return to pot. Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil to pasta in pot; season with salt and pepper, and toss to combine. Serve pasta topped with shrimp mixture and pan juices.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, melt 3 tablespoons of the butter over moderately low heat. Add the onion, garlic, red pepper flakes and salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Add the tomatoes and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, partially covered, until thick, about 45 minutes. Stir occasionally during cooking.
• During the last 10 minutes of cooking, put a large pot of water on the stove and bring to a boil, getting ready for the pasta.
• Mash the tomatoes with a potato masher until all large pieces are broken up. (Original recipe says to run through a food mill, but I don't think it's necessary)
• Add the heavy cream and bring the sauce to a boil over moderate heat.
• Add the shrimp and basil and cook just until the shrimp are pink, about 4 minutes.
• Add salt to the pot of boiling water, then add the pasta. Cook until the pasta is just done, about 3 minutes. Drain.
• Toss the pasta with the remaining 1 tablespoon butter.
• The original recipe says to serve the pasta topped with the sauce, but we like to just mix it all together in the pot and serve already coated.
• You can pass freshly grated parmesan at the table, if desired.
