For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of dry white wine to the sauce while it simmers. Fresh herbs are always best, but if you only have dried, use about 1 teaspoon of dried parsley in place of the fresh. Don't overcook the shrimp, or they will become rubbery. Add them at the very end just to heat through. A sprinkle of red pepper flakes adds a pleasant touch of heat.

Sep 23, 2023The sauce was a bit thick for my taste, but adding a little pasta water helped to thin it out perfectly.
