Garlic Butter Shrimp Scampi with Linguine
Succulent shrimp sautéed in a fragrant garlic-butter sauce and tossed with al dente linguine for a bright, citrusy finish.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz large shrimp
1 oz dry linguine
0.5 tbsp unsalted butter
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
3 cloves garlic
0.25 tsp red pepper flakes
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 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, reserving two tablespoons of pasta water.
While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat until the butter is melted and shimmering.
Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes to the skillet, sautéing for about one minute until the garlic is aromatic but not browned.
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the shrimp in a single layer, seasoning with sea salt and black pepper.
Cook the shrimp for two minutes per side until they are pink and opaque, then stir in the lemon juice and lemon zest.
Add the cooked linguine and reserved pasta water to the skillet, tossing everything together to coat the noodles in the glossy sauce.
Remove from heat and garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving immediately.
