Zesty Garlic Shrimp Scampi with Linguine
Sautéed succulent shrimp tossed in a vibrant garlic and lemon sauce over tender whole grain linguine, finished with a sprinkle of fresh, fragrant parsley.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz shrimp
1.5 oz whole grain linguine
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
3 cloves garlic
0.25 tsp red pepper flakes
1 whole lemon
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 grain linguine according to package directions until al dente.
Reserve 0.25 cup of the starchy pasta water, then drain the noodles and set them aside.
While the pasta cooks, heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes to the skillet, sautéing for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer and season with sea salt and black pepper.
Cook the shrimp for 2 minutes per side until they turn pink and opaque.
Stir in the juice and zest of the lemon along with the reserved pasta water to create a light, zesty sauce.
Add the cooked linguine and chopped fresh parsley to the skillet, tossing everything together until the pasta is well coated.
Serve immediately in a shallow bowl.
