Shrimp Filetto di Pomodoro is a classic Italian dish that is both delicious and easy to make. The shrimp is cooked in a flavorful tomato sauce that is made with fresh tomatoes, garlic, onions, and herbs. This dish is typically served over pasta or rice, and it can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. The key to making this dish well is to use fresh, high-quality ingredients and to cook the shrimp until it is just cooked through. Overcooking the shrimp will make it tough and rubbery.

PAPPA AL POMODORO
Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large stockpot over medium heat. Add the onions, carrots, fennel, and garlic and cook over medium-low heat for 10 minutes, until tender. Add the ciabatta cubes and cook for 5 more minutes. Place the tomatoes in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process just until coarsely chopped. Add the tomatoes to the pot along with the chicken stock, red wine, basil, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper. Bring the soup to a boil, lower the heat, and allow to simmer, partially covered, for 45 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- For the topping, place the ciabatta cubes, pancetta, and basil on a sheet pan large enough to hold them in a single layer. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and toss well. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 20 to 25 minutes, until all the ingredients are crisp. The basil leaves will turn dark and crisp, which is perfectly fine. Reheat the soup, if necessary, beat with a wire whisk until the bread is broken up. Stir in the Parmesan and taste for seasoning. Serve hot sprinkled with the topping and drizzled with additional olive oil.
PASTA WITH SHRIMP POMODORO SAUCE
This is nice and light for a pasta dish, and quick to put together. For your basic pomodoro sauce to serve anytime with pasta, simply omit the shrimp. I do think the choice of canned tomatoes is extremely important, and effects the overall quality of the sauce. I definitely use imported Italian tomatoes, preferably San Marzano.
