Zesty Garlic Butter Shrimp Scampi
Succulent shrimp sautéed in a fragrant garlic-ghee sauce tossed with a blend of whole wheat pasta and crisp zucchini noodles for a bright, citrusy finish.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz raw shrimp
1 oz dry whole wheat linguine
2 cup zucchini noodles
0.5 tbsp ghee
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
3 clove garlic
0.25 tsp red pepper flakes
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
1 tbsp fresh parsley
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat linguine according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and season evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil and ghee in a large skillet over medium-high heat until the ghee is melted and shimmering.
Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer and sear for 1-2 minutes per side until pink and opaque, then remove the shrimp and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes, sautéing for 30-45 seconds until the garlic is aromatic and golden.
Stir in the lemon juice and lemon zest, scraping up any flavorful browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
Add the cooked linguine and zucchini noodles to the skillet, tossing for 1-2 minutes until the zucchini is slightly softened but still crisp.
Return the shrimp to the pan, add the fresh parsley, and toss everything together to coat in the garlic butter sauce before serving hot.
