    *Disclaimer - This recipe was originally published in 2014. I'm working hard to update all my older recipes with recipe cards, new photos, and additional recipe information. But, getting to all of them will take time. Please bear with me. In the meantime let me assure you that this recipe is still a winner and one I'm sure you'll be well pleased with when you make it at home.

    Fra Diavolo means "spicy brother" so even though I did make my own changes to this recipe of Shrimp Fra'Diavolo, I made sure to keep the dish spicy, and hot.

    Not enough to scare you away, or burn the taste buds off your tongue. Just enough to keep you on your toes. HaHa. I think I need another helping. 🙂

    ⭐If you've made this recipe, or are excited to make this recipe, I'd appreciate it if you'd take a moment to leave it a star rating on the recipe card, along with a comment if you're so inclined. Thank you. 🙂

      I love anything with shrimps and I love anything spicy. My partner loves shrimp too but is not that fussed on spicy. He will however eat just about anything put in front of him if it contains broccoli. so this dish looks like a win:win to me 🙂

      Using salsa as a pasta sauce is a great idea! I've used for a peach picante chicken and it was so simple, all the dicing is already done!

      There's a little Italian restaurant close to us that makes a terrific Shrimp Fra Diavolo. I always order it when we eat there. Can't wait to give your recipe a try!

      What a great idea using salsa in the sauce. I like a more mild sauce but my husband likes super spicy - and using salsa is a great way to tailor this dish for each of us!

      I love the salsa - what a great idea to include in the sauce! And almost exactly the same thing happened to me this month. I selected the recipe I wanted to make the first day I was assigned my secret blog. I too thought we had another week. Luckily I had all the components made and really just had to assemble and bake. But I woke up yesterday so sick I could hardly raise my head. But there was no way I could disappoint my assigned blogger - I love her site and was so excited over the recipe. Somehow it all happened, but I've got to get better at scheduling 🙂

      I'm so glad you chose this recipe! I love that you added the broccoli, and using salsa instead of the canned tomatoes is such a great idea! So glad you were able to get it up on time. The picture looks fabulous, by the way!! 🙂

      I would never have thought to use salsa to add the heat. Sounds like a must try for Fish Friday.
