This simple, light summer pasta gets its vibrant flavor from brined shrimp, sweet peppers, and a generous splash of rosé. A splash of heavy cream makes the sauce creamier and richer, while red pepper flakes add a touch of piquancy. Serve with a glass of the same wine you used to make it, and enjoy this summery vibe all year round.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the shrimp with a generous pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper. Add the shrimp to the hot skillet, spreading them in an even layer, and cook until pink and opaque, 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
  2. Return the skillet to medium-high heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the bell pepper, onion, garlic, 2 tablespoons oregano, red pepper flakes, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened and browned in spots, about 5 minutes.

  3. Pour in the wine and cream and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Bring to a steady simmer and continue cooking until the alcohol has evaporated and the sauce has thickened, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a blender and blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Pour the sauce back into the pan and keep warm over low heat.
  4. Meanwhile, bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente; drain thoroughly.
  5. Toss the pasta with the shrimp and 1 teaspoon of oregano. Continue tossing until the pasta is heated through and well coated. Transfer the pasta to a large shallow bowl and sprinkle with the remaining 1 teaspoon of oregano.
