1. Cook the pasta: Boil water in a large pot. Add salt and cook the pasta according to the instructions on the package until al dente. Drain them and set aside a glass of the pasta cooking water.
2. Cook the shrimp: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the prawns and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side, until pink and cooked through. Remove the shrimp from the pan and set aside.
3. Sauté the garlic and red pepper flakes: In the same pan, add a little more oil if necessary and add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes. Saute for about 1 minute, until the garlic is fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
4. Add the liquids and tomatoes: if you use white wine, pour it into the pan and let it evaporate for a few minutes. Then add fish broth or chicken broth. Add the cherry tomatoes cut in half and let them cook for about 3-4 minutes until the cherry tomatoes soften slightly.
5. Combine the ingredients: Add the cooked shrimp to the pan. Mix everything gently to combine the flavors. If the sauce seems too thick you can add a little pasta cooking water to adjust the consistency.
6. Add the pasta and finish: Add the cooked pasta to the pan and mix well to coat with the sauce and shrimp. Cook a few more minutes to allow the pasta to absorb the flavours.
7. Season and serve: Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Sprinkle the pasta with chopped fresh parsley.
8. Optional: If you wish, you can serve the pasta with shrimp with a little grated parmesan on top.
