Calabrian Steak and Shrimp Bucatini Recipe.
Some foods feel special. They don’t just fill your stomach. They make you smile. That’s what happened when I cooked Calabrian Steak and Shrimp Bucatini Recipe.
Ingredients
- 12 oz bucatini pasta
- 8 oz steak ribeye or sirloin
- 8 oz shrimp peeled and clean
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 3 garlic cloves chopped
- 2 tbsp Calabrian chili paste
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes cut in half
- ½ cup white wine or chicken broth
- ½ cup Parmesan cheese grated
- Salt and black pepper
- Fresh parsley
Instructions
- Boil a pot of salted water. Cook pasta until just firm. Save one cup of pasta water. Drain.
- Season steak with salt and pepper. Sear in hot oil until brown. Rest, then slice.
- Cook shrimp in the same pan until pink. Remove.
- Add garlic and chili paste. Stir until it smells good.
- Add tomatoes. Cook until soft. Pour in wine. Let it reduce.
- Put in pasta, Parmesan, and a splash of pasta water. Mix until shiny.
- Add steak and shrimp. Sprinkle parsley.
Notes
Use only a little chili paste. Too much will burn your mouth. Do not overcook steak or shrimp. They should stay soft. And never skip pasta water—it makes the sauce stick.
