I'm not sure about this recipe. It seems like it might be too spicy for me.

The sauce was a bit too thin for my liking, but the flavor was good.

The shrimp fra diavolo was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. He said it was the best shrimp dish he's ever had.

This is one of my favorite shrimp recipes. It's so easy to make and always turns out great. I usually serve it with rice, but it's also good with pasta.

I made this dish last night and it was delicious! The sauce was especially good. I used a little less red pepper flakes than the recipe called for, because I don't like things too spicy. It was the perfect amount of heat for me.
