Zesty Garlic Butter Shrimp Scampi
Sautéed shrimp and whole wheat linguine are tossed in a fragrant garlic butter sauce, finished with a bright and zesty lemon lift.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz Large shrimp
1.5 oz Whole wheat linguine
0.5 tbsp Ghee
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
3 cloves Garlic
0.25 tsp Red pepper flakes
1 tbsp Fresh 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 whole wheat linguine according to package instructions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil and ghee in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes to the skillet, sautéing for about 1 minute until the aroma is released.
Pat the shrimp dry and add them to the skillet in a single layer, seasoning with sea salt and black pepper.
Cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side until they are pink, opaque, and slightly curled.
Drain the pasta, reserving a splash of the cooking water, and add the noodles directly into the skillet with the shrimp.
Stir in the lemon juice, lemon zest, and fresh parsley, tossing everything together to ensure the pasta is well coated in the garlic butter sauce.
Serve immediately while hot, garnished with extra parsley if desired.
