Method
Cooking Pasta
Cook the Spaghetti
In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving some pasta water.
Preparing Shrimp
Sauté the Shrimp
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and red pepper flakes, sautéing for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the shrimp and cook until they turn pink, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.
Making Tomato Fondue
Prepare the Creamy Tomato Sauce
In the same skillet, add the canned crushed tomatoes, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.
Combine Everything
Add the cooked spaghetti and sautéed shrimp to the skillet with the tomato sauce. Toss to combine. If the sauce is too thick, add reserved pasta water a little at a time to reach desired consistency.
Finish with Fresh Ingredients
Stir in chopped basil and grated grana padano. Adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if necessary.
