Shrimp Fra Diavolo (paleo and slow cooker)This paleo Shrimp Fra Diavolo recipe is from page 208 of the The Everything Weeknight Paleo Cookbook, edited by Michelle Fagone (Cavegirl Cuisine). Copyright ©2014 by F+W Media, Inc.

Serve this spicy sauce over hot “Paleo pasta,” that is, spaghetti squash. Spaghetti sauash is an excellent substitute for pasta. When cooked in the oven for 40-50 minutes, the squash becomes soft enough to lightly separate with a fork, forming angel hair-like pasta.

  • • 1/2 teaspoon freshly fround black pepper
  • • 1/4 pound medium-size shrimp, shelled

Directions

  2. Add the onion mixture, tomatoes, parsley, and black pepper to a 4-quart slow cooker. Stir. Cook on low for 2-3 hours.
  3. Add the shrimp. Stir, cover, and cook on high for 15 minutes or until the shrimp is fully cooked.
