Preparation method

How do you make this?

Cooking scampi: Heat a pan over medium heat and add 2 tbsp olive oil. Let it get hot.

Sear the scampi briefly and vigorously on both sides until they turn golden pink. Remove them from the pan and set aside.

Making the sauce: Add a little extra oil to the same pan and briefly sauté the chopped garlic until fragrant.

Add the smoked paprika and ‘nduja. Stir well until the ‘nduja completely melts and mixes with the oil.

Pour the cream and tomato passata into the pan and stir everything well. Let the sauce simmer for a few minutes until it thickens slightly. Season with a pinch of salt.

Combining: Return the cooked scampi to the pan and let them simmer in the sauce for another 2 minutes.

Finish with chopped parsley and serve immediately.
