Instructions
- Cook the pasta in a pot of salted water according to package instructions until al dente. Drain, reserving ½ cup of the cooking pasta liquid.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp to the pan, season with salt and black pepper, and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until shrimp is opaque, transfer to a bowl and set aside.
- Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in the same skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
- Add the tomato sauce and basil and simmer on low for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens.
- Transfer the cooked pasta on top of the sauce, and add some of the reserved cooking liquid, if desired. Serve with shrimp on top and extra basil, if desired.

Notes
- Storage: Refrigerate any leftover pasta in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Make Ahead Suggestions: You can make the arrabiata pasta up to 4-5 days in advance and then just add freshly made pasta and warm through.
- Freezing Instructions: You can make a big batch of the arrabiata pasta and freeze it for up to 3 months. It's best to cook it without the shrimp for freezing and it will last for 3 months.
