Shrimp Fra Diavolo
Most likely an Italian-American creation, the dish known as fra diavolo, or “brother devil,” is indeed a spicy one. The tomato-based sauce gets a kick of heat from red pepper flakes; we call for 1¼ teaspoons, though feel free to adjust to your taste. This shrimp fra diavolo is quite saucy, so we suggest serving it over pasta or polenta or with crusty bread alongside for dipping.
