🛒 Ingredients
🍳 Preparation Steps
  1. 1

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain, reserving a ladle of cooking water.

  2. 2

    Finely chop the onion and garlic. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté the onion for 3-4 minutes until translucent.

  3. 3

    Add the chopped garlic and cook for 30 seconds to release its aroma, without letting it color.

  4. 4

    Pour in the tomato sauce, salt and pepper. Let simmer over low heat for 8-10 minutes, stirring, until slightly thickened.

  5. 5

    Add the peeled shrimp to the sauce. Mix and cook for 3-4 minutes until they are pink and tender.

  6. 6

    Stir in the parsley. If the sauce is too thick, thin it with a little pasta cooking water. Taste and adjust seasoning.

  7. 7

    Add the drained spaghetti to the skillet with the sauce. Toss vigorously to coat well. Serve immediately.

Tips & Tricks
  • To save time, use already peeled and deveined shrimp, or prepare them in advance.
  • Gourmet variation: Replace the shrimp with scallops or pieces of fresh salmon.
  • The key to perfect shrimp: short cooking. As soon as they turn pink and opaque, remove them from the heat to prevent them from becoming rubbery.
