DINNER AT OUR PLACE: Italian Shrimp Pasta with Cherry Tomatoes

If you loved our Bucatini Pasta Fish recipe, inspired by our time in Italy, you’ll love this shrimp pasta! It’s very similar, but uses shrimp instead of fish. Frozen shrimp can be found most everywhere in North America. Growing up in Florida, I took it for granted that we could always find fresh shrimp. Now that we live in California, we typically have a big bag in the freezer of individually quick frozen shrimp on hand, unless it’s prawn season - then we'll substitute huge, head-on live prawns!

Here’s another shrimp pasta recipe that we love. It’s inspired by Avec in Chicago. It uses rock shrimp, corn, and squid ink pasta. (You can substitute chopped shrimp for rock shrimp and any pasta.)
