Serves 2 with leftovers




2 cups water
Salt and black pepper, to taste
1 cup long-grain white rice
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 pounds large unshelled shrimp, peeled
1 small onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, or more to taste
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
1 can (14 ounces) whole tomatoes and their juices, crushed in a bowl
Pinch of sugar
1 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, sliced
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Extra basil leaves (for garnish)

1. In a medium saucepan, bring the water and a generous pinch of salt to a boil. Add the rice, lower the heat, cover the pan, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the rice absorbs the water and the grains are tender.

2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil. Add the shrimp and cook, stirring constantly, for 3 minutes. Remove shrimp from the pan; set aside.

3. Add the onion, salt, and black pepper to the skilet. Cook, stirring often, for 8 minutes or until it softens. Add the garlic, red pepper, and cherry tomatoes. Cook, stirring, 1 minute more.

4. Add the canned tomatoes, sugar, and wine. Bring to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes.

5. Stir in the basil and lemon juice. Return the shrimp to the pan. Heat for 1 minute or until hot. Taste for seasoning and add more salt and pepper, if you like. Set aside 2 cups of shrimp and sauce for the shrimp stew. Spoon the shrimp and tomato mixture over the rice. Garnish with basil.
