CHEF JOHN'S SHRIMP FRA DIAVOLO
This recipe features the devilishly delicious shrimp fra diavolo, or 'shrimp brother devil' if we are being literal for comic effect. It's really good and turns any pile of pasta or rice into a memorable meal. Some people like to add a little lemon, but I don't think it needs it unless your wine is too sweet.

Steps:

CHICKEN DIABLO
This Spanish chicken dish was a hit with me and my husband who love spicy food. This recipe tastes similar to buffalo wings, but without all the calories. The leftover chicken can be used chopped over salad greens too.

RUTH REICHL'S CHICKEN DIAVOLO
Ruth Reichl developed this crispy, spicy chicken after eating pollo alla diavola at Lupa restaurant in New York. The actual cooking time is short, but the recipe does require making the chile oil in advance and marinating the chicken. She suggests buying hot chile oil if you are in a hurry. Be careful; the chicken can produce a lot of smoke in cooking.

Steps:
- Make the chile oil: Chop jalapeño and serrano chiles and put them in a small saucepan with 3/4 cup olive oil. Add hot paprika and grind in a fair amount of black pepper. Steep over medium heat for about 15 minutes. Let sit overnight, or all day.
- Strain chile oil into a large bowl. Slice 2 lemons and add them to the bowl. Season with salt. Coat chicken with the oil, put in a zip-top bag and let it sit in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or up to a day.
- Heat oven to 500. Heat a cast-iron skillet until it's quite hot (about 5 minutes). Meanwhile, remove the chicken from the chile oil and pat it dry. Sprinkle it with salt and shower it with pepper; you need a lot. Slick the bottom of the pan with olive oil and put the chicken, skin-side down, in the hot skillet. Cook until the skin is crisp and golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Turn the chicken skin-side up.
- Put the skillet in the oven and roast about 20 minutes, or until a thermometer registers 170 degrees in the thickest part of the thigh. Sprinkle with juice from half a lemon, shower with more pepper and allow to rest 10 minutes before serving.

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your Torrisi's Chicken Fra Diavolo the best flavor. If possible, use organic chicken, fresh tomatoes, and herbs.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When browning the chicken, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly.
- Use a good quality white wine: The white wine you use in the sauce will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish. Use a dry, crisp white wine that you would enjoy drinking on its own.
- Add the pasta to the sauce: Once the sauce is simmering, add the pasta and cook until it is al dente. This will ensure that the pasta is cooked through but still has a little bite to it.
- Garnish with fresh herbs: Before serving, garnish the dish with fresh herbs such as basil, parsley, or oregano. This will add a pop of color and flavor to the dish.
Conclusion:
Torrisi's Chicken Fra Diavolo is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal.
