Shrimp Piquante With Fusilli Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add the shallots and garlic and and saute until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the red pepper flakes and white wine and bring to a simmer. Simmer until the wine reduces by half, about 5 minutes. Add the shrimp and cook just until they are pink, about 2 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook the fusilli in a large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 8 to 10 minutes.
• Drain the fusilli. Add the fusilli and arugula to the skillet. Toss to combine. Season the pasta, to taste, with salt and pepper. Transfer the pasta to a large bowl and serve.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a 4-quart non-stick saucepan over high heat; add the onions, bell pepper, and celery and saute for about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Add the tomatoes, tomato sauce, jalapeno, bay leaves, ground peppers, and garlic, stirring well; cook about 3 minutes and stir often.
• Stir in the stock, sugar and salt and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat and simmer until flavors are married, about 20 minutes, stirring often.
• Turn the heat up to high, and when the sauce is boiling, remove from heat.
• Add in the shrimp, push them down in the sauce, cover the pan and let sit for 10 minutes.
• Remove bay leaves.
• To serve, mound 1/2 cup cooked rice in the center of each serving bowl, then pour about 1/2 cup sauce around the rice and arrange 8 shrimp on the top of the sauce.
• Serve with a cool beverage of your choice-- you'll need it!
