Basically this is a spicy shrimp sauce. I decided to make a sauce with grape tomatoes because I though it would made a nice sweet and spicy sauce... plus I had a TON of them!
1 lb shrimp (20-30 count), de-veined and peeled
1 tsp salt
1 tsp red pepper flakes
1 onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups grape tomatoes
1/2 c chicken broth
1/4 c white wine
A handful of basil, chopped
Pasta
Stir together shrimp, salt, and pepper. Heat a sauce pan over medium-high heat and add a couple table spoons of oil. Cook shrimp for about 2 minutes and flip over for another minute or two. Shrimp will be cooked when they are completely pink. Remove to a plate.
In the same pan, add onion and cook until translucent. Add garlic and stir. Add grape tomatoes and turn up the heat to high. Saute the tomatoes and allow them to burst. During cooking, push down on the tomatoes with the back of a large spoon, helping them to break down. Add the broth and bring to a boil. Continue helping the tomatoes to break down and create a sauce. Once the broth has reduced add the wine and cook for about 3 minutes. Add the shrimp and stir to combine. Remove from heat and stir in basil.
Serve with pasta and garnish with Parmesan.
