Zesty Garlic Butter Shrimp Scampi
Succulent shrimp sautéed in a fragrant garlic-ghee sauce, tossed with a vibrant blend of whole wheat linguine and crisp zucchini noodles for a light yet satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz shrimp
0.5 cup cooked whole wheat linguine
1 cup zucchini noodles
1 tbsp ghee
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
3 cloves garlic
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.5 tsp lemon zest
0.25 tsp red pepper flakes
2 tbsp fresh parsley
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat linguine in salted water until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Spiralize the zucchini into thin noodles and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.
Pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel and season lightly with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the shrimp for 2 minutes per side until golden and opaque.
Remove the shrimp from the skillet, reduce the heat to medium, and add the ghee, minced garlic, and red pepper flakes.
Sauté for 60 seconds until the garlic is fragrant but not browned, then stir in the lemon juice and zest.
Add the cooked pasta and zucchini noodles to the skillet, tossing with tongs for 2 minutes until the zucchini is slightly softened.
Fold the shrimp back into the pan, garnish with freshly chopped parsley, and serve immediately.
