Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons Olive Oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Butter
  • 1/2 cups White Wine
  • 1 Tablespoon Tomato Paste
  • 3 cloves Garlic, Pressed
  • 1 pound Fresh Small Shrimp Peeled And Deveined
  • 1 whole Roma Tomato, Diced
  • 1/2 jars Capers (3 Ounce Jar)
  • 1/2 cans (6 Oz. Size) Whole Black Olives Or Olives Of Your Choice
  • 6 leaves Fresh Basil & Oregano
  • 1 box Angel Hair Pasta (12-16 Ounce Box)

Method

  • If you are peeling and deveining the shrimp yourself the prep time will be approximately 35 minutes otherwise it should only be around 10 minutes.
  • While the pasta is cooking; in a medium sauce pan combine the olive oil and the butter.
  • Heat for about 3 minutes or just until the butter is melted.
  • Be careful not to brown or burn the butter.
  • When the butter is melted add the wine.
  • Simmer for about 7 minutes.
  • As always when cooking with wine taste before you add any other ingredients in order to make sure that there was enough butter to cut the acid in the wine tannins.
  • If it still has a bite to it add more butter.
  • Once the wine and butter are to your liking add the tomato paste and pressed garlic until well blended -approximately 2 minutes.
  • Now toss in those lovely shrimp, diced tomato, capers and whole black olives.
  • Cook until all of the shrimp are pink.
  • This will take about 6-8 minutes.
  • Be careful not to over cook the shrimp.
  • They should be tender and give a little when you push down on them, not overly firm.
  • Serve over the pasta and enjoy!
