Ingredients

    1 lb. Shrimp, raw
    6 - 8 oz Barilla Linguine or Fettucini
    2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
    2 - 3 hot (red) Jalapeno Peppers, minced
    3 cloves Garlic, minced

    1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese, grated
    1/2 teas. salt (optional)
    1/4 teas. pepper(optional)

Tips

Has a little heat, but not overwhelming, with 3 chili jalapenos, the red skinny ones. Adjust accordingly.


Directions

Peel and de-vein shrimp. Cook linguine (or other pasta) according to package directions.
In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add jalapeņos, garlic, salt, and pepper; cook and stir one minute. Add tomatoes and heat thoroughly.
Add shrimp and white wine (or Marsala wine if white is not available); cook until shrimp just turns pink.
Drain linguine; toss with shrimp mixture. Top with Parmesan cheese.
Variation: Add 3 Tb chopped fresh basil instead of the chili peppers. (I have not given this variation a try, so let me know if you try it and like it!)
