2 tablespoons delallo extra virgin olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon hot red pepper flakes
1 1/2 lbs raw shrimp, peeled and de-veined

This recipe is a great starting point, but I like to add my own personal touches. I usually add a bit of garlic and red pepper flakes to the sauce.

I'm not a fan of shrimp, so I used chicken instead. It turned out great!

I think this recipe would be better with a different type of pasta. The orzo was a bit too soft for my taste.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for me, but I'm sure it would be great for people who like spicy food.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my dish didn't turn out as good as I hoped. The sauce was bland and the shrimp were overcooked.
