DRUNKEN SHAMELESS SPICY SHRIMP (DINOSAUR BBQ)

Drunken Shameless Spicy Shrimp (Dinosaur BBQ) image

John Stage almost always leaves something out in the recipes he publishes so they are just a little off. In this case, I think he just wrote "creole seasoning" when in fact, this stuff tastes most authentic with a spice they sell around here in the restaurant and in stores called "Cajun Foreplay." Use it generously. Either way these are delicious, especially served with Dinosaur BBQ Cocktail Sauce (recipe # 295318). Not for wimps!

SHRIMP FRA DIABLO

Shrimp Fra Diablo image

A thick, spicy sauce of garlic, olive oil, and fire-roasted tomatoes is sauteed with shrimp or your favorite seafood. Legend has it that it was named for Michele Pezza, also known as 'Fra Diablo' (Friar Devil), who helped push Napoleon's forces out of Naples. Serve the sauce over hot pasta, or, my favorite, hot couscous cooked with olive oil and garlic.

Ingredients

¼ cup olive oil
1 shallot, minced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon red pepper flakes, or to taste
1 (14.5 ounce) can fire-roasted diced tomatoes
3 tablespoons tomato paste
½ cup dry white wine
1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 tablespoon dried parsley
½ tablespoon dried basil
1 pinch ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir shallot and garlic in hot oil until tender, about 5 minutes.
