- In a large non-stick skillet, heat EVOO and Garlic over medium-high heat. Pat your cleaned P&D shrimp dry and season with Harissa Seasoning. Place in the pan and for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until shrimp start to become pink and are nearly cooked through. (Minimum internal temperature of 145F)
- Add the diced peppers and tomatoes to the pan. Sauté with the shrimp for one minute. Add a 3 oz ladle of the sauce to the pan along with 6 oz cooked penne pasta. Toss until combined and hot.
- Plate and top with chopped Italian flat leaf parsley and freshly grated Parmesan Reggiano cheese.
