Garlic Lemon Herb Shrimp with Silky Whole Wheat Spaghetti
Savor the delicate balance of succulent shrimp tossed with silky whole wheat spaghetti in a bright, zesty garlic lemon herb sauce. This dish is a refreshing and light option that harmonizes the briny sweetness of shrimp with aromatic herbs and a touch of olive oil for a satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Shrimp
2 ounces Whole Wheat Spaghetti (dry)
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 tablespoon Fresh Basil
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat spaghetti until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving a little pasta water.
In a large skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil and add the minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until they turn pink and opaque.
Pour in the lemon juice and toss in the fresh basil, allowing the flavors to meld with the shrimp.
Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet, tossing gently to combine. If needed, add a splash of the reserved pasta water to keep the dish moist.
Season with salt and pepper to taste, then serve immediately while hot.
