Directions

1. In a large sprayed skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, 30 seconds longer. Stir in the tomatoes, red-pepper flakes, water, parsley and pepper. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, for 10 minutes. Add the shrimp and cook, covered, just until the shrimp are pink, about 4 minutes.
2. In a large pot of boiling water, cook the spaghetti until just done, about 9 minutes. Drain the pasta and toss with the tomato sauce and shrimp.
