Cook and stir for 1 to 2 minutes or just until onion is tender. Add shrimp and crushed red pepper; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Add roasted peppers and wine.
• Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, about 2 minutes or until shrimp are opaque, stirring occasionally. Stir in cream. Return to boiling; reduce heat. Boil gently, uncovered, for 1 minute. Stir in basil.

CREAMY HERBED SHRIMP AND ROASTED RED PEPPER PASTA SALAD

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
• Whisk together the mayonnaise, parsley, scallions, sour cream, lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl.
• Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Add the shrimp, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until just cooked through, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
• Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook according to the package directions. Drain and rinse under cold water to cool; add to the bowl with the dressing.
• Add the shrimp, roasted red peppers and celery to the bowl and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper. The pasta salad is best if served right away.

SHRIMP AND ROASTED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Peel and devein shrimp. Singe peppers over a gas flame or under a broiler until blackened all over. Allow to cool and rub off charred skin. (Don't be afraid to leave a bit of the charring behind; the flavor is essential to the dish.) Stem and seed the charred peppers and cut them into shrimp-sized pieces.
• Heat clarified butter in a large skillet until very hot. Add shrimp and saute briefly until they turn white and pink. Remove and reserve.
• Add shallots to skillet and saute 1 minute without browning. Add tomato puree and bring to the boil. Add butter, salt and pepper to taste and stir until butter is melted. Add peppers and bring to the boil again.
• Return shrimp to skillet to heat through and finish cooking (about 1 minute). Pour mixture into serving dish. Serve over pasta or rice.

SHRIMP WITH RED AND YELLOW PEPPERS

Steps:

• Peel the peppers, core and seed them. Cut away any white pith inside the peppers and cut them into narrow 1 1/2" strips.
• Peel and thinly slice the garlic. Put it with the olive oil in a 12" skillet and place over medium high heat. As soon as the garlic begins to sizzle, add the peppers. Season lightly with salt and cook until the peppers are tender, about 10 minutes. Do not stir too often so that the peppers will have a chance to brown lightly.
• While the peppers are cooking, peel the tomatoes and coarsely chop. When the peppers are done, add the tomatoes to the pan. Season them lightly with salt and cook until the tomatoes have reduced and are no longer watery, about 10 minutes.
• While the tomatoes are cooking, peel and devein the shrimp.
• Chop enough of the oregano leaves to measure 1 teaspoon and add it to the tomatoes along with the capers. Cook for about 30 seconds, then add the shrimp and season with salt before stirring them inches Cook the shrimp just until they are pink through and through, 2-3 minutes.

GRILLED SHRIMP SKEWERS WITH ROASTED RED PEPPER SAUCE

Steps:

• Prepare a hot charcoal grill. Lay peppers directly on the grill and let them blister, turning frequently until blackened all over, about 8 minutes. Set aside on a plate until cool enough to handle. (Alternatively, roast peppers on the stovetop, directly on the flames of a gas burner.)
• Cut peppers in half lengthwise. Cut off stems, scrape away skins and seeds, and discard. Do not rinse; a bit of char is OK. Chop the peppers into 2-inch chunks.
• With a food processor or blender, whirl together peppers, almonds, pimentón, cayenne and garlic to form a rough paste. Season with salt and pepper. Slowly add olive oil to achieve the consistency of a thick milkshake. Taste, adjust seasoning and transfer to a serving bowl.
• In a medium saucepan, boil potatoes in well-salted water until just done, about 10 minutes. Drain.
• Place onion pieces on the grill skin-side down. Salt lightly. Cover with lid and cook until onions are soft, about 15 minutes. Set aside and keep warm.
• Place boiled potatoes on grill and cook until slightly charred, 8 to 10 minutes. Set aside and keep warm.
• Meanwhile, thread shrimp onto skewers, 4 or 5 shrimp per skewer, without crowding. (If using bamboo skewers, soak them in water to prevent burning.) Brush lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
• Lay skewers on grill over hot coals. Cook for about 3 minutes, then flip and cook until shrimp turn pink and are a bit charred, 3 minutes more
• Arrange shrimp, potatoes and onions on a large platter. Serve with the red pepper sauce and lemon wedges.

ROASTED RED BELL PEPPER BISQUE WITH SHRIMP AND ROMANO CHEESE

Steps:

• Char red bell peppers over gas flame or in broiler until blackened on all sides. Enclose in paper bag. Let stand 10 minutes. Peel and seed peppers. Cut 1 pepper into matchstick-size strips and set aside. Coarsely chop remaining 4 peppers. Combine chopped peppers and stock in heavy large saucepan. Bring to boil; reduce heat and simmer until peppers are very tender, about 5 minutes. Working in batches, puree soup in blender until smooth. Return puree to saucepan. Mix in paprika and sugar. Simmer 5 minutes to blend flavors. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover bell pepper strips and soup separately and refrigerate.) Whisk in cream and pecorino Romano cheese. Season to taste with hot pepper sauce, salt and pepper.
