Zesty Garlic Butter Shrimp Scampi
Sautéed shrimp and linguine tossed in a fragrant garlic-ghee sauce with zesty lemon and red pepper flakes for a vibrant, clean-eating dinner.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz shrimp
1.5 oz linguine
1 tbsp ghee
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
3 cloves garlic
0.25 tsp red pepper flakes
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 linguine according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and season them evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and ghee over medium heat until the ghee is completely melted and shimmering.
Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes to the skillet, sautéing for about 1 minute until the garlic is fragrant but not browned.
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the shrimp in a single layer, cooking for 2 minutes per side until they are pink and opaque.
Stir in the lemon juice and lemon zest, then immediately remove the skillet from the heat to prevent the garlic from burning.
Drain the linguine, reserving 2 tablespoons of the pasta cooking water, and add both the noodles and the water to the skillet.
Toss all ingredients together until the pasta is coated in the glossy garlic sauce, then garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
