- Extra-virgin olive oil, plus high quality extra-virgin olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, smashed
- Pinch crushed red pepper flakes
- 1 pint heirloom cherry tomatoes, assorted sizes and colors
- 1 1/2 to 2 cups vegetable or chicken stock
- Kosher salt
- 1 pound fresh tagliatelle
- 1 1/2 pounds rock shrimp, rinsed and picked through for shells
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan
- Preheat a grill or broiler.
- Grill or broil the corn until it is dark brown on all sides.
- Cut the kernels off the cob and reserve.
- Once the kernels have been removed from the cob, run your knife along the cob to get any residual pieces of the kernels.
- Reserve.
- Coat a large wide pot, over medium-high heat, with olive oil.
- Toss in the garlic and crushed red pepper.

- Toss in the cherry tomatoes and roll them around in the oil.
- Add 1 cup of stock and season with salt.

- Add the corn kernels to the pot with the tomatoes.
- Stir to combine and add 1/2 cup of stock if the liquid level is very low.
- Drop the pasta into the boiling water and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or longer if using dried pasta.
- Toss the shrimp into the pot with the tomatoes and stir to combine.
- Drain the pasta from the cooking water, reserving 1/2 cup water, and toss immediately into the pot with the tomato mixture.
- Add in 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking water, if needed.
- Toss vigorously to combine.
- Remove from the heat and give a drizzle of high quality finishing oil and a sprinkling of grated Parmesan.
- Transfer to a serving bowl or platter and serve immediately.
