INGREDIENTS
6 oz Shrimp
1 cup Whole Wheat Linguine, cooked
1 tbsp Unsalted Butter
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat linguine according to the package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Pat the shrimp dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and add the minced garlic, sautéing until fragrant (about 30 seconds).
Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for about 2 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the butter, allowing it to melt and combine with the garlic and shrimp. Squeeze in the lemon juice.
Toss the cooked linguine into the skillet, stirring gently to coat the pasta with the garlic butter sauce.
Finish by sprinkling with fresh parsley, adjusting seasonings with salt and pepper, and serve immediately.
