PASTA WITH RED PEPPER SAUCE, SAUSAGE, AND SHRIMP
Steps:
- # Get your pasta started: cook in hot water as per package directions, when cooked, drain and keep warm. # Prick your sausages with a fork and cook in skillet on stove or grill them. When cooked, slice. # In a medium saucepan with a lid, warm olive oil and add pancetta or bacon. Cook, stirring, on medium for a minute, then add onion. Cook on medium until onion is softened, but not browned. # Add red peppers and plum tomatoes. Turn heat to low and cook, covered, for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally and adding a tablespoon or two of water if it starts to become dry. # Add vodka, garlic (reserving ½ tsp for shrimp), and red pepper flakes. Turn heat to medium, cook for a minute or two, stirring. # Cover, return heat to low, and cook on low for another 30 minutes or so, stirring occasionally and adding small amounts of water if needed. You want it to be somewhere between soupy and dry. # Remove lid, with a fork whisk in softened butter, and season with salt & pepper to taste. # Don't cook the shrimp until just before you're ready to serve. In clean skillet heat 1T butter and 1T olive oil on med high. Add shrimp, turn heat to high and cook for a minute, add garlic, cook for another minute or two, on both sides, until just cooked. # To serve, toss warm cooked pasta with sauce. Place sliced sausage and shrimp on top, and garnish with oregano. If you're not Italian, feel free to serve with cheese.
