occasionally.
Meanwhile, in a large pan, heat 4 tablespoons of the olive oil, stir in the
garlic and shallots, and saute until the shallots are translucent. Add the
cherry pepper and shrimp, taking care not to crowd the shrimp lest they

the shrimp to the pan for a few secones. Pour Three fourths of the sauce into a
second pan; drain and stir the spaghetti into the second pan and toss over

medium heat, mixing the sauce and pasta well. Sweve immediately, spooning
on remaining sauce.
