Tommys Muscato Shrimp With Pasta Recipes

SPAGHETTI WITH SHRIMP, MUSSELS AND BABY TOMATOES

Steps:

• In a large saute pan over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and the shrimp. Sear on both sides, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Set the shrimp aside on a plate (they will be cooked more later) and reserve the pan.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook until just shy of al dente according to the package directions. Before draining, reserve about 1/2 cup of the cooking water.
• Meanwhile, add the remaining 1/4 cup olive oil to the saute pan over medium heat. Add the crushed red pepper and garlic and cook until the garlic edges are just slightly brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the tomatoes and lightly smash them with the back of a spoon to release their juices. Cook, stirring often, until thickened slightly, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the mussels, cover and cook until they open and release their juices, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Raise the heat to medium high and add the shrimp back to the pan. Add the spaghetti and a little of the reserved pasta water and cook, tossing and adding more pasta water as necessary to keep the pasta moist, until the shrimp begin to turn pink, about 2 minutes. Add the parsley and basil and season with additional salt if needed. Transfer the spaghetti to warm bowls.

SHRIMP AND TOMATO PASTA

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium. Add the shrimp, season with 1 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until just cooked through, about 3 minutes. Transfer the shrimp to a dish and set aside. Discard any excess liquid in the pan.
• Add the remaining 6 tablespoons oil and the garlic cloves to the same pan and cook over medium-low, turning the garlic a couple of times until light gold and fragrant, taking care not to burn them, about 4 minutes. Add the fennel seeds and red-pepper flakes, stir and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Increase the heat to medium and add the cherry tomatoes and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt.
• Cook the tomatoes, stirring occasionally, until they release their juices and get saucy, 25 to 30 minutes. While the tomatoes cook, bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil for the pasta. Add the spaghetti and cook until al dente, about 10 minutes.
• Transfer the shrimp with any juices to the tomatoes to reheat for a couple of minutes. Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning.
• Set the pasta pot next to the saucepan and use tongs to transfer the spaghetti to the tomatoes and shrimp. The starchy water clinging to the spaghetti will make for a tasty and silky sauce. (You can drain the spaghetti, if you prefer. If you do, reserve 1/4 cup of the pasta water to add as needed for a silky sauce.) Remove the pan from the heat, add the basil and toss well. Season with black pepper to taste and serve.
