Shrimp takes a spicy turn in this pasta dish. Both the arrabbiata sauce and infused oil include Calabrian chili paste, but the tomatoes and sweet onions mellow out the heat a bit. Use a long, thin pasta in this recipe, such as chitarrine—which translates to guitar strings—or spaghettini to hold the sauce.
Ingredients
Chili herb oil
2 cups fresh basil leaves, minced
1 bunch parsley, minced
1 cup fresh oregano leaves, minced
½ cup Calabrian chili paste
2 tbsp. kosher salt
1½ tsp. ground black pepper
2 cups olive oil
Arrabbiata Sauce
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
¼ cup minced fresh garlic
1 cup finely chopped sweet onions
1 can (16 oz.) tomatoes
1 tbsp. Calabrian chili paste
1½ tsp. kosher salt
1 tsp. ground black pepper
1 sprig fresh oregano

2 tbsp. chili herb oil, divided (recipe above)
1 oz. extra virgin olive oil
12 oz. arrabbiata sauce, heated (recipe above)
½ tsp. salt
½ tsp. ground black pepper
7 oz. chitarrine pasta, cooked
1 tbsp. basil chiffonade
1 tbsp. grated pecorino cheese
