Garlic Olive Oil Spaghetti with Chili and Shrimp
Sautéed shrimp and al dente spaghetti tossed in a fragrant, golden garlic-infused olive oil with a spicy kick of red pepper flakes.
INGREDIENTS
1.5 oz dry whole wheat spaghetti
7 oz raw shrimp
0.75 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
3 clove garlic
0.5 tsp red pepper flakes
2 tbsp fresh parsley
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp lemon juice
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the spaghetti according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, peel and devein the shrimp, then pat them dry and season with sea salt and black pepper.
Thinly slice the garlic cloves into very fine slivers.
In a large skillet, heat the extra virgin olive oil over medium-low heat.
Add the sliced garlic and red pepper flakes to the oil, sautéing gently for 2-3 minutes until the garlic is fragrant and just beginning to turn golden.
Increase the heat to medium and add the shrimp to the skillet, cooking for 2 minutes per side until pink and opaque.
Reserve 2 tablespoons of the pasta cooking water, then drain the spaghetti.
Add the spaghetti, reserved pasta water, and fresh parsley to the skillet with the shrimp and garlic oil.
Toss everything together for 1 minute to emulsify the sauce, then finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice before serving.
