How to Make Scampi Ala Doloresa

In a medium bowl, marinate the shrimp in 1/2 cup Marsala wine, 2 tablespoons olive oil, and 2 cloves minced garlic for 15-20 minutes.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package directions, slightly undercooked (al dente).
While the pasta cooks, melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the remaining 2 cloves of minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the chopped sun-dried tomatoes and diced fresh tomato to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Stir in the chicken or vegetable bouillon and cook for another minute until slightly thickened.
Remove the shrimp from the marinade and set aside. Add the marinade to the skillet and cook for 5 minutes, gently stirring, until slightly reduced.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook gently for 3 minutes, or until they curl and turn pink. Do not overcook!
Drain the pasta and add it to the skillet with the shrimp mixture.
Cook over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, stirring constantly, to coat the pasta evenly in the sauce.
Serve immediately in bowls, topped with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
