For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of sugar to the tomato sauce to balance the acidity. Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to suit your spice preference. Fresh herbs can be substituted for dried; use approximately three times the amount. Serve with crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce.

01
StepMarinate the Shrimp: In a resealable bag, combine shrimp with red pepper flakes, lemon juice, and salt. Seal and marinate in the refrigerator. (1 hour)
02
StepPrepare Tomato Puree: Pulse vine-ripened tomatoes in a blender until smooth.

StepSauté the Shrimp: Melt butter in a large frying pan over medium-low heat. Add marinated shrimp and increase heat to medium. Cook, stirring, until slightly browned on the outsides but not fully cooked through. Remove shrimp and set aside. (1 1/2 minutes)

StepSimmer the Sauce: Add the pureed tomatoes, plum tomatoes, basil, parsley, and oregano to the sauce. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, stirring frequently, until flavors meld. (25 minutes)
