Steps

    Prep

    • First things first, if your shrimp isn’t already peeled, and de-vained, go ahead and do so

    • Saute your shrimp. Cook 1-3 minutes per side (depending on size). And then transfer to plate.
    • Use that same pan, and add the butter and a splash of oil (so your butter doesn’t burn)
    • Add the onion and bell pepper to the pan, and saute till translucent or caramalized.
    • Add garlic, and sautee until fragrant, and then add all of your tomato sauce.
    • Boil the water and then add the entire pack of pasta to the water. And follow packaging instructions
    • While your pasta is cooking, add the rest of the Italian seasoning and stir in. And then add the sugar (to balance out the acidity)
    • Add the heavy cream and then stir in. And then add the red pepper flakes. At the point, taste your sauce and add any additional salt to your desired taste
    • Add your pasta to the pan and then toss all together. Plate and then serve immediately
