In a large saute pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the shrimp with a generous pinch each salt and pepper, and then sear on both sides, about 2 minutes on each side. Add the chile flakes, garlic and serrano chile. Remove from the heat, add the limoncello, and then flambe. Add the white wine and tomatoes and cook the sauce until it reduces by half, about 5 minutes. Finish with the grated cheese, parsley, basil and oregano. Then swirl in the extra-virgin olive oil and butter, and season with the lemon zest and juice.
