SHRIMP AND TOMATO PASTA
Frozen shrimp is a freezer staple that can be counted on to save dinner any night - simply thaw to use them whenever needed. Here, shrimp and spaghetti are tossed with juicy cherry tomatoes, which are gently simmered until they burst and turn saucy. This dish is best with ripe, in-season cherry tomatoes, but the aromatic fennel seeds and garlic infused in the oil will coax maximum flavor out of less enthusiastic tomatoes while adding depth to the sauce.

Steps:
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium. Add the shrimp, season with 1 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until just cooked through, about 3 minutes. Transfer the shrimp to a dish and set aside. Discard any excess liquid in the pan.
- Add the remaining 6 tablespoons oil and the garlic cloves to the same pan and cook over medium-low, turning the garlic a couple of times until light gold and fragrant, taking care not to burn them, about 4 minutes. Add the fennel seeds and red-pepper flakes, stir and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Increase the heat to medium and add the cherry tomatoes and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt.
- Cook the tomatoes, stirring occasionally, until they release their juices and get saucy, 25 to 30 minutes. While the tomatoes cook, bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil for the pasta. Add the spaghetti and cook until al dente, about 10 minutes.
- Transfer the shrimp with any juices to the tomatoes to reheat for a couple of minutes. Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning.
- Set the pasta pot next to the saucepan and use tongs to transfer the spaghetti to the tomatoes and shrimp. The starchy water clinging to the spaghetti will make for a tasty and silky sauce. (You can drain the spaghetti, if you prefer. If you do, reserve 1/4 cup of the pasta water to add as needed for a silky sauce.) Remove the pan from the heat, add the basil and toss well. Season with black pepper to taste and serve.
LINGUINE WITH SHRIMP, TOMATOES, AND FETA SABRAW
Steps:
- Shell shrimp and, if desired, devein. In a large saucepan of boiling salted water cook shrimp until cooked through, about 1 minute, and drain well.
- Halve tomatoes and mince garlic. Finely chop scallions. In a large bowl stir together all ingredients except linguine with salt and pepper to taste. Chill sauce, covered, 1 hour. Let sauce stand at room temperature, stirring occasionally, 20 minutes.
- In an 8-quart kettle bring 6 quarts salted water to a boil and cook linguine until al dente. Reserve 1/3 cup pasta water and drain pasta. Add pasta to sauce and toss well, adding enough pasta water to reach desired consistency.
Tips:
- Choose the right shrimp: Use large, fresh shrimp for the best flavor and texture. If using frozen shrimp, thaw them completely before cooking.
- Cook the shrimp properly: Shrimp cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Cook shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, or until it is pink and opaque.
- Use ripe tomatoes: Ripe tomatoes will have the best flavor and texture. If you can, use fresh tomatoes from your garden or local farmer's market.
- Add some feta cheese: Feta cheese adds a salty, tangy flavor to the dish. If you don't have feta cheese, you can use another type of cheese, such as Parmesan or mozzarella.
- Use a good quality pasta: The type of pasta you use will affect the overall flavor and texture of the dish. Use a pasta that is made with high-quality ingredients and that has a good shape for holding the sauce.
- Don't overcook the pasta: Pasta should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and bland.
- Season the dish to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You may also want to add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dash of red pepper flakes.
