Love Fra Diavolo! We sometimes like it with chicken in place of seafood. The kind of dish you usually have everything around for - perfect!

Oh sweetie, you won my heart with this one, the more Diavolo the better. I think monkfish is sorely underrated and it could stand up well in this sauce and be much more economical too. Great post.
