Roasted Red Pepper Shrimp Linguine: A Spicy Twist on Pasta Perfection for Two

There’s something magical about the sweet, smoky flavor of roasted red peppers paired with the bold kick of spicy tomato sauce. Now add in tender shrimp, perfectly cooked linguine, and a pouch of Le Sauce & Co.’s Spicy Pomodoro, and you’ve got a pasta dish that’s vibrant, full of life, and weeknight-dinner easy. Roasted Red Pepper Shrimp Linguine is not only a mouthful in name—it’s a mouthful of flavor in the best possible way.

This dish comes together quickly, but it tastes like something you’d find at your favorite bistro. The star of the show is undoubtedly Le Sauce & Co.'s Spicy Pomodoro Gourmet Pasta Sauce, which delivers a bold, well-balanced heat without overpowering the dish. It’s robust and garlicky, with just enough chili to warm your palate, and it beautifully enhances the natural sweetness of roasted red peppers and the briny richness of shrimp.

As soon as the shrimp hit the pan, their savory aroma starts to build anticipation. They cook quickly—just a few minutes per side—until they’re pink, plump, and slightly crisp at the edges. Add in strips of roasted red pepper—either freshly roasted or from a jar for convenience—and suddenly you have a pan full of color and flavor.

But the magic really happens when you pour in that Spicy Pomodoro sauce. The tomatoes bring brightness, the chili adds depth, and the herbs and aromatics tie everything together. It coats the shrimp and red peppers like a dream, turning a simple skillet into a rich, spicy, savory masterpiece.

Toss in the linguine, give it all a generous mix, and you’re done. What you get is a dish that feels indulgent but isn’t fussy. The pasta is silky and satisfying, the shrimp provide a protein boost, and the roasted red peppers offer a sweet, smoky contrast that keeps every bite interesting.

This is the kind of meal that proves gourmet doesn’t have to mean complicated. Using Le Sauce & Co.’s Spicy Pomodoro means you skip the long-simmering tomato sauce and all the extra seasoning, but you don’t sacrifice an ounce of flavor. It’s real ingredients, real texture, and real taste—straight from the pouch to the pan.

Serve it up with a sprinkle of fresh basil or parsley and a grating of parmesan if you like. Maybe a piece of crusty bread to scoop up the extra sauce. Maybe not. Either way, you’ve got something that feels special enough for a Friday night but easy enough for a Monday.

Roasted Red Pepper Shrimp Linguine is a reminder that you don’t need a dozen ingredients or hours in the kitchen to create a dish that’s vibrant, satisfying, and full of love. You just need a smart shortcut—like Le Sauce & Co.—and a little bit of inspiration
