Add the garlic and the jalapeño and cook until the garlic becomes a pale gold. Stir in the parsley, then add the tomatoes with their juices and liberal pinches of salt. Reduce the heat and cook at a steady simmer, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes cook down and the oil begins to separate from the sauce, about 20 minutes. Add the shrimp to the skillet and stir to coat with sauce. Cover and simmer until the shrimp are just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with additional salt and serve immediately with the grilled bread. Make Ahead The sauce can be refrigerated for up to 1 day. Bring back to a simmer before competing the dish. Suggested Pairing The delicate flavor of shrimp calls for white wine—unless the dish has the assertive ingredients this one does. The tanginess of the tomatoes and the heat of the chile point to a flavorful red with some acidity. A Barbera from Italy, such as Prunotto Barbera d'Alba Romualdo or Pio Cesare Barbera d'Alba, would fit the bill perfectly. Rate it Print
