QUICK AND AUTHENTIC PASTA POMODORO SAUCE

Steps:

• Begin cooking the pasta noodles in boiling water seasoned with 1 tablespoon kosher salt for approximately 5 minutes. *NOTE: Reserve 2 cups of the pasta water to add to the sauce later. While the pasta is cooking, start the sauce.
• For the sauce, cut the tomatoes in half, then quarter the halves, and set aside. Heat 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium high heat, and add three of the garlic cloves to the oil. Tilt the pan so the garlic is immersed in the oil to flavor it as the garlic cooks. Cook until the garlic becomes fragrant and begins to color, then to avoid splatters, carefully add the tomatoes along with their juice to the flavored oil. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring and breaking apart the tomatoes as they cook. Pull out the garlic cloves and discard. Continue cooking the sauce for 6-8 more minutes where it will thicken and become creamy as it cooks. Tear the fresh basil leaves into pieces and add to the sauce when cooking is nearly complete.
• As the pasta is cooking, heat the remaining olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium high heat with the remaining garlic. Cook until lightly browned and remove the garlic and discard. Carefully ladle 1 to 1/2 cups of the pasta water 1/4 cup at a time into the garlic infused oil. Transfer the noodles to the pan and continue cooking the pasta for 1-2 more minutes or until the water and oil is absorbed. Divide the noodles among four plates, and top with the sauce. Garnish with more fresh basil and finish with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil before serving. Or, toss the noodles with the sauce and serve family style

• Place shrimp in a bowl with two tablespoons of the olive oil, 2 tablespoons of minced garlic and the kosher salt and marinate while you prepare the rest of the dish.
• Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and keep the water hot and ready to cook the pasta in a later step.
• In a large wok, pour in remaining 4 tablespoons of the olive oil.
• Take five peeled garlic cloves and smash them on your cutting board with the side of a knife. Add to the pan with the oil and bring the heat to low.
• Cook the garlic on low for ten minutes, turning each piece a few times so they don't cook too long on one side. After ten minutes, remove the garlic and discard.
• Heat the pan of garlic flavored oil over medium heat and add the onion and peppers and cook for about five minutes or until the vegetables have softened but still maintain texture. Remove them to a large bowl with a slotted spoon, leaving the oil in the pan.
• Bring the pot of water back to a boil and add the fusilli and cook a few minutes less than the package directions. The pasta should still have some chew and not be fully cooked.
• While the pasta cooks, raise the heat under the garlic oil to medium high and once hot, add one tablespoon of minced garlic and the red pepper flakes and cook one minute. Then add all of the shrimp including the marinade. Toss quickly and often to cook the shrimp almost to fully cooked. The shrimp should be pink on the outside and still a little opaque in the center, about three minutes. Pick up the wok or saute pan, and slide the shrimp with any liquid into the bowl with the pepper and onion.
• Keep the heat at medium high and add two tablespoons of butter and once melted, add the flour and cook for one minute, stirring continually.
• Add the wine and cook for two minutes, again stirring continually.
• Add the stock, lemon juice and lemon zest and cook over medium for one minute then reduce to low to hold until the pasta is cooked.
• Once the pasta is cooked, don't drain but use a spider or strainer and add the almost-cooked pasta to the liquid in the wok along with one cup of the pasta water. Turn the heat to medium high and cook just long enough to finish cooking the pasta, maybe 2-3 minutes.
• Add the bowl with the shrimp, peppers and onions and bring everything up to hot.
• Stir in the remaining butter, the parsley and the Parmesan cheese and combine.
• Remove from heat and serve with additional Parmesan cheese.
• Also, can be served with freshly cracked black pepper, optional.
