Spicy Shrimp Rigatoni

 1/4 cup oil

1/2 Tbs crushed red pepper

1/8 tsp salt

1/8 tsp ground black pepper

1 Tbsp chopped garlic

12 oz shrimp

1 jar Bertolli 4 Cheese Rosa (or Parm Rosa) sauce

2 tsp butter

1/4 cup peas

1 lb Rigatoni pasta, cooked according to package directions

additional 1/2 t crushed red pepper (for garnish)

In a sauté pan, heat oil over medium heat. Add crushed red pepper, salt, black pepper and garlic and sauté just long enough for garlic to caramelize and red pepper to release flavor into the oil. Add shrimp and sauté in spices and garlic until shrimp is cooked through.

Add jar of 4 Cheese Rosa, bring to a simmer. Cook until sauce thickens slightly. Turn off flame, add butter and peas and incorporate into sauce.

Toss pasta with sauce. Garnish with crushed red pepper and serve.

 

***If you have trouble locating the 4 Cheese Rosa sauce, you can use 3/4 cup Marinara sauce with 1/2 cup Alfredo sauce.
