Garlic Butter Shrimp Scampi with Whole Wheat Linguine and Fresh Asparagus
A vibrant twist on classic scampi, this dish features succulent garlic butter shrimp nestled atop whole wheat linguine with crisp, tender asparagus spears. Bright lemon juice and fragrant garlic infuse every bite for a satisfying yet balanced meal.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Shrimp (cooked)
2 oz Whole Wheat Linguine (dry)
1 cup Fresh Asparagus (chopped)
1 tbsp Unsalted Butter
3 cloves Garlic
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and add the whole wheat linguine. Cook according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic (from the 3 cloves) to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and are just cooked through.
Stir in the lemon juice, then add the chopped fresh asparagus and sauté for an additional 2 minutes until tender yet crisp.
Toss the cooked linguine into the skillet, mixing everything well to coat in the garlic butter sauce.
Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve immediately while warm.
