Equipment

  • Large Skillet This large Anolon 12" Skillet is ideal for making one-pan meals!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb. spaghetti cooked al dente and drained
  • 1 lb. shrimp large, raw, peeled and deveined with tails removed
  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium yellow onion chopped (about 1 cup)
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 (4 oz. jar) capers drained
  • 1 (14.5 oz. can) diced tomatoes
  • 1 (14.5 oz. can) tomato sauce
  • 1 cup white wine
  • 1 cup half and half or heavy cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

Instructions
 

  • In a large pot, begin boiling water to cook pasta. Cook pasta according to package directions.
  • In a large skillet, heat 1 Tbsp. olive oil, and add shrimp. Sprinkle with a little garlic salt to season. Cook for 2-3 minutes, just until shrimp is light pink. Remove from skillet to bowl and set aside. Cover to keep warm.
  • In the same skillet, heat 1 Tbsp. olive oil. Add garlic and onion and cook for 6-8 minutes until onion is translucent. Add the white wine, and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 2-3 minutes (this will cook off the alcohol.) Add the tomatoes, tomato sauce, and capers. Bring to a simmer, and stirring occasionally. Add the salt, cayenne pepper and red pepper flakes. Stir to incorporate the spices while simmering. Add the half and half, and cooked shrimp while continue to simmer.
  • Once pasta is finished cooking, immediately add to the sauce. Stir to completely incorporate the sauce and pasta. Serve immediately. Top with shaved Parmesan, Romano or Assiago cheese.
