Instructions
1
Heat some olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add sliced garlic and chopped onion, and sauté until fragrant.
2
First, add the shrimp heads and shells to the pan and stir-fry them. Use a cooking utensil to crush the heads, allowing the internal organs to release their flavor into the oil.
3
Add enough oil and season with a spicy grinder.
4
Add a small amount of water or broth and mix it with the oil to enhance the umami flavor.
5
Add the peperoncino and prepared shrimp meat, and heat until the shrimp are cooked through and firm.

Finally, top with pre-roasted cherry tomatoes to complete the dish.
