Zesty Garlic Butter Shrimp Scampi
Sautéed shrimp tossed with whole wheat pasta in a vibrant garlic-lemon sauce, finished with a sprinkle of fresh parsley for a bright, aromatic finish.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz shrimp
1.5 oz whole wheat linguine
0.5 tbsp ghee
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
3 clove garlic
0.25 tsp red pepper flakes
1 cup baby spinach
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.5 tsp lemon zest
2 tbsp fresh parsley
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat linguine until al dente, following the package instructions.
While the pasta cooks, heat the ghee and extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes to the skillet, sautéing for about 1 minute until the garlic is fragrant and golden.
Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer, seasoning with sea salt and black pepper.
Cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side until they are pink, opaque, and slightly curled.
Stir in the baby spinach and cook for 1 minute until the leaves are just wilted.
Drain the cooked pasta, reserving approximately 2 tablespoons of the starchy cooking water.
Transfer the pasta and reserved water to the skillet, adding the lemon juice and lemon zest.
Toss everything together over medium-low heat until the pasta is well-coated in the garlic sauce.
Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and serve immediately.
