Instructions

Boil a large pot of salted water and cook pasta al dente according to package directions.
Add the olive oil to a skillet on medium-high heat. Sauté the onion for 5 minutes (it's ok if it browns lightly).
Add the wine, Dijon mustard, and garlic to the pan and cook for 2 minutes.
Add the diced tomatoes, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, cream, and shrimp to the pan. Give it a good stir, reduce heat to medium, cover, and cook for 5 minutes.
Stir in the basil, salt & pepper, and cook it for another few minutes or until the shrimp are completely cooked through. Drain the pasta and toss it with the sauce.
Serve immediately with freshly grated parmesan cheese and fresh parsley if desired.

Notes

The recipe as written isn't super spicy, so feel free to add more red pepper flakes or even cayenne pepper as needed.
The splash of cream gives a wonderful consistency to the sauce, so I would definitely include it. Feel free to adjust as needed. The sauce is not super creamy, but you can add more if you prefer.
I left the shrimp tails on for the photos, but removing them prior to cooking is fine.
