Easy Shrimp marinara

I love a good spicy shrimp marinara. The other day I happened to have some Marinara sauce left over and decided it was a good time to put that to use.

I had some frozen Colossal shrimp that I purchased from Walmart. I prefer the ones that are frozen, yet still have the shell on. They've already had the vein removed so no extra work needed to clean them.

The best thing about these is that I can use the amount of shrimp I need for one serving (or more) and keep the rest frozen for future use.

I picked out 6-7 shrimp. I placed them in a bowl of water to defrost (usually takes only 25-30 minutes).

Since these shrimp were going to be over rice (or pasta, your choice) prior to cooking I went ahead and peeled them entirely.

I sprinkled the shrimp with Old Bay and Louisiana Spice rub. I pan seared the shrimp really quick to let the flavors sear into the shrimp. Just about a minute.

I poured about a cup of the Marinara sauce I had into a sauce pan and heated it up on medium-low. As the sauce started to bubble I tossed in the shrimp, added dash of hot sauce and a tiny shot of white wine.
I let everything simmer until the shrimp were thoroughly cooked.
I served mine with rice because it's what I had left-over in my fridge. But this can easily go over a serving of pasta.

Stories about Florida Man part 1

  There is always something funny or unusual coming out of my home state of Florida. Just the other day, a “Florida Man,” washed ashore in Flagler County after he encountered some problems while trying to, “run to the Northern US or Bermuda,” on what appeared to be a giant floating hamster wheel. The man, Reza Baluci, said he was raising money to help the homeless, and raise funds for police and fire departments and the Coast Guard. Turns out that guy has his own You Tube Page and website: https://www.runwithreza.org/ It’s a great website to visit when you want to start going down a Florida Man rabbit hole. Seems to me this guy has done more for his fellow humans, with his feet firmly panted here on Earth or in the water, than billionaire Jezz Bezos has done.  But seriously there have been some truly weird headline throughout the years, some too funny to be believable, others too horrifying, yet true. One of the first headlines I can recall was back in 2012: Florida Man chews off anoth
