✓ USDA-verified nutrition data

Ingredients

• 1.5 lb Shrimp
• 3 Tomatoes
• 2 Bell peppers
• 1 Onion
• 4 cloves Garlic
• 3 tbsp Butter
• 1 cup Mozzarella
• 1 tsp Red pepper flakes
• 0.25 cup Parsley
• 1.5 tsp Salt

Steps

1. Sear the shrimp quickly in the butter, 1 minute per side — they finish in the oven, so pull them while still translucent in the center.
2. In the same pan, soften the onion, peppers, and garlic, then add the chopped tomatoes, pepper flakes, and salt. Simmer 10 minutes into a chunky sauce.
3. Divide the sauce among 4 small oven-safe crocks (or one baking dish), nestle the shrimp into the sauce, and shower generously with grated cheese.
4. Bake at 425°F for 10 to 12 minutes, until the cheese is bubbling and browned in spots and the shrimp are just cooked through.
5. Rest 5 minutes — the sauce is molten lava straight from the oven. Scatter parsley and serve with bread for scooping up every drop.
