- Chop the red hot chili peppers.
- Peel, devein, and rinse the shrimps.

- Add the peeled and deveined shrimps to the skillet.
- Cook the shrimps for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they turn pink and are cooked through. Remove the shrimps from the skillet and set them aside.
- In the same skillet, add the diced tomatoes.
- Cook the tomatoes for about 5 minutes until they start to break down and release their juices.

Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: For the best flavor, use fresh tomatoes, fresh parsley, and high-quality shrimp. Fresh ingredients make a significant difference in the taste of the dish.
- Cook pasta al dente: Ensure the pasta is cooked al dente (firm to the bite) as it will continue to cook slightly when mixed with the hot sauce.
- Don't overcook the shrimp: Shrimps cook very quickly. Keep an eye on them to avoid overcooking, which can result in a tough texture. They should be pink and opaque when done.
- Adjust the heat level: If you prefer a milder dish, reduce the amount of chili peppers or remove the seeds before adding them to the dish.
- Fresh herbs for garnish: Add freshly chopped parsley at the end to preserve its vibrant color and fresh flavor.
