How to Make Shrimp Fra Diavolo

This Shrimp Fra Diavolo is made with shrimp, red pepper flakes, onion, tomatoes, white wine, garlic, parsley and served with spaghetti.
In Italian, “Fra Diavolo” means brother devil, or devil monk. This dish maybe got its name due to its spicy sauce and red tomatoes. The shrimp, tomatoes and spicy red pepper flakes are the combination you never knew you needed in your life. You may modify the amount of red pepper flakes to use according to how much spice you can handle.
In a medium bowl, add the shrimp with a pinch of salt and the red pepper flakes and toss.
In a large, deep skillet, heat oil on medium high and wait for it to shimmer.
Add the shrimp and sauté until cooked through, about 2-3 minutes on each side.
Remove the shrimp and set on a plate.
Add the onion in the same skillet and cook until soft, about 5 minutes.
Add the tomatoes, wine, oregano and garlic and simmer until the sauce thickens, about 10 minutes. Return the shrimp to the sauce and remove from heat.
Garnish with parsley and serve with spaghetti.
