Zesty Garlic Butter Shrimp Scampi
Sautéed shrimp tossed in a vibrant garlic-lemon ghee sauce over whole wheat pasta, finished with a sprinkle of fresh parsley for a bright, aromatic finish.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz shrimp
1.5 oz whole wheat pasta
0.5 tbsp ghee
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
3 clove garlic
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.5 tsp lemon zest
0.25 tsp red pepper flakes
1 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 pasta according to package directions until al dente.
Reserve 2 tablespoons of the starchy pasta water, then drain the pasta and set aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, combine the olive oil and ghee until melted and shimmering.
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 for 2 minutes per side until pink and opaque.
Pour in the lemon juice, lemon zest, and reserved pasta water, stirring to emulsify the sauce with the shrimp.
Add the cooked pasta and fresh parsley to the skillet, tossing thoroughly to coat the noodles in the zesty garlic butter sauce before serving.
