Description
Shrimp Marinara is an amazing dish that comes together in about 20 to 30 minutes. Juicy shrimp are cooked in a garlicky tomato sauce with white wine, herbs, and served over pasta for a delicious Italian-inspired meal.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 6 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 lb shrimp, medium to large, peeled and deveined
- 1 teaspoon fresh oregano, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh Italian parsley, chopped
- ¼ cup fresh basil, chopped
- ¼ cup white wine
- 1 (15 oz) can whole tomatoes, drained
- ½ cup clam juice
- ½ cup marinara sauce
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- ½ lb pasta (e.g., angel hair, spaghetti, linguine)
Instructions
1. Add water to a large pot, season with salt, and bring to a boil.
2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté until just golden, about 1–2 minutes.
3. Place shrimp in a bowl and toss with oregano, parsley, and basil.
4. Add shrimp to the skillet and cook until curled and pink, about 4–5 minutes. Remove shrimp with a slotted spoon and set aside.
5. In the same skillet, add white wine and cook for about 1 minute to deglaze.
6. Squeeze the drained tomatoes into the skillet by hand, then add clam juice and marinara sauce. Stir in salt and pepper, and simmer for 4 minutes.
7. While the sauce cooks, add pasta to the boiling water and cook until al dente according to package directions.
8. Add the cooked shrimp back into the sauce and simmer for a few minutes to combine flavors.
9. Drain pasta and either stir it into the sauce or serve the sauce over plated pasta. Adjust seasoning to taste and serve immediately.
