Chili Crisp Shrimp Spaghetti

If you like really spicy flavors this recipe is for you, to my non spicy loving friends I don’t recommend this dish for you. This dish is spicy enough to make you sweat! It’s super simple to make you can make it with or without shrimp. Jim enjoyed it with the shrimp!

INGREDIENTS

1/2 pound of spaghetti
3 Tablespoons of prepared chili crisp (I purchased it online)
1 1/2 cups freshly grated Pecorino Romano
2 Tablespoons unsalted butter
Pinch of salt
Desired amount of shrimp peeled and deveined with tails off.
1 Tablespoon of olive oil
1/2 cup reserved pasta water

DIRECTIONS

Bring water to a boil and cook spaghetti until desired consistency, we prefer ours on the firmer side.
Meanwhile heat a sauté pan over medium heat add the oil and the shrimp and cook until the shrimp are pink. Remove the shrimp and add the chili crisp into the same pan and cook for just a minute stirring continuously.
Drain the pasta reserving a 1/2 cup of pasta water. add your shrimp, chili crisp and 1/2 cup of pasta water, butter and cheese stir constantly and vigorously to incorporate all of the ingredients and to keep them from clipping together.

Serve warm,
Enjoy!
