Shrimp Pasta with Spicy Vodka Sauce
This shrimp pasta with spicy vodka sauce is easy to make and perfect any night of the week. This recipe comes together in under 30 minutes and tastes like it came straight from a restaurant. The al dente pasta, spicy sauce and tender shrimp are the perfect combination. Trust me, you’ll want to add this to your weekly rotation.
What’s great about this recipe, is that you can pull it together in no time. I used Delallo Food’s Pomodoro Spicy Vodka Sauce, which is jam packed with flavor. It’s perfectly spicy, creamy and delicious. You can pour this sauce over almost anything. However, in this recipe, we poured it over Delallo’s delicious Shellbow Pasta and shrimp.

Ingredients Needed for Shrimp Pasta with Spicy Vodka Sauce
Pasta – Be sure to use 8-10 ounces of Delallo Foods Shellbow Pasta for this recipe. Also, be sure to cook the pasta al dente. The pasta will continue to cook in the pan with the sauce and shrimp. What I love most about this pasta, is that the shells scoop up the sauce for the perfect bite every single time.
Sauce – For this recipe, be sure to use Delallo’s Pomodoro Spicy Vodka Sauce. It’s creamy, spicy and delicious.
Shrimp – For this recipe, sauté some peeled and deveined shrimp in Delallo Food’s Private Reserve Extra Olive Oil. Be sure to season them with a touch of salt and cracked black pepper.
Garnishes – Sprinkle the pasta with freshly chopped Italian parsley, and Delallo Foods Grated Parmesan Cheese.

What a fantastic, tasty meal! My “chef” husband prepared this for us. Wow, was this delicious. And the spicy vodka sauce had just enough heat. We didn’t have shellbow pasta so he used penne. He will definitely make it again.
So glad you enjoyed!
