A few ideas on this Arrabbiate shrimp pasta dish

This restaurant inspired spicy  shrimp linguine recipe works well with chicken if you don’t like shrimp, or tofu if you want to go the vegetarian route.

Also in this easy pasta dish the size of the pasta or shape doesn’t matter. If your gluten free use gluten free pasta.

If your family doesn’t like spicy no problem, add less hot pepper flakes or more if you want extra heat.

One thing, be sure to use a deep enough stock pot to allow the pasta to move freely when cooking, and a deep enough saute pan for the sauce.

I used my homemade real easy marinara sauce, you can use store bought if you want.
