Shrimp Fra Diavolo – The Brother Devil Made Me Do It

This latest test of still how little I know about editing in Adobe Premier, features a devilishly delicious shrimp fra diavolo, or "shrimp brother devil," if we're being literal for comic effect.

I think this came out looking pretty good, although it took me so much longer to edit, since I'm still barely at novice level using the new software. So, with it being Friday afternoon and all, I'm gong to keep this short and sweet, and simply suggest you do two things.

First of all, if you know any great Premier tips, tricks or resources, send them my way! You'll notice I don't have consistent transitions, or captions for the times and temperatures; but I'm sure I'll have that figured out soon enough. Secondly, make this. It's really good, and turns any pile of pasta or rice into a memorable meal. I hope you give this a try soon. Enjoy!

Ingredients for 2 large or 4 smaller portions:

• 1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined (16/20 per pound size, bigger is better)
• 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes, or more if you’re sexy
• 1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
• 2 or 3 tablespoons olive oil, enough to generously coat the shrimp
• 1/2 large yellow onion, sliced
• 1/2 tsp dried oregano, or 2 tsp of fresh
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 cup drinkable white wine
• 11/2 cups can crushed San Marzano tomatoes
• 2 tablespoons chopped Italian parsley
• 2 tablespoons sliced fresh basil leaves
• *some people like lemon, but I don’t think it needs it unless your wine was too sweet.
