Shrimp N Sauce Recipe

Shrimp n sauce

From mike_kennedy 15 years ago

Great sauce for shrimp or scallops to go over pasta. pretty quick, too. I never measure when cooking, so you gotta eye it.

Peel skin off the tomatoes and and cut them up into chucks, place in skillet
finely chop garlic (after smashing) and add to tomatoes
throw in about a palm of cracked pepper corns
a dash or two of salt (taste later and titrate)
strip leaves from oregano and throw in
pour enough olive oil in till it looks like its going to make a good sauce (about half a cup or so, stop whining, olive oil is good for you!)
stir it all up and place the lid on it, heat to a nice gentle boil for about 5 minutes or so
get your potato masher and when the tomatoes look like they'll mash real good, got at it. mash them up till the sauce looks real inviting
taste it, as salt if you need to
let it simmer covered for about 10 minutes or so, letting all the flavors get to know one another
cook the pasta while your sauce is maturing
just before your pasta is al dente, add the shrimp to the sauce and stir it up. watch it, be sure not to over cook the shrimp
once done, serve over pasta and sprinkle with fresh grated parmesan cheese. goes great with crusty bread.
