This is the exact Shrimp Fra Diavolo recipe I make and it is one of my favorite go-to meals - I make it at least once a month, sometimes twice. It's really simple to make and yet impressive and the flavor is just over the top. Guests just seem to go nuts over it...like me. Heh.

I have never tried it over lemon pasta and I think that is a great idea. So, I'm saving your recipe to try the next time I make this and I'll let you know what I think of the variation. Thanks! =)


SO important to not overcok shrimp... and i think i'll use some 12 counts... showcase the shrimp. great recipe!


Sounds delicious - can't wait to try!


I'm with you luna, the lemon pasta sounds great!
