Garlic Butter Shrimp Scampi with Linguine
Shrimp sautéed in a fragrant garlic and ghee sauce, tossed with al dente linguine and finished with a fresh squeeze of lemon.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz large shrimp
1.5 oz dry linguine
0.5 tbsp ghee
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
3 cloves garlic
0.25 tsp red pepper flakes
2 tbsp fresh parsley
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.5 tsp lemon zest
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the linguine according to package directions until al dente, then reserve 2 tablespoons of pasta water before draining.
Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and season them evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
In a large skillet over medium heat, combine the olive oil and ghee until the ghee is fully melted.
Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes to the skillet, sautéing for about 1 minute until the mixture is fragrant.
Place the shrimp in the skillet in a single layer and cook for 2 minutes per side until they are pink and opaque.
Stir in the lemon juice, lemon zest, and the reserved pasta water to create a light, silky sauce.
Add the cooked linguine and fresh parsley to the skillet, tossing thoroughly to coat the pasta in the garlic butter sauce.
Serve the scampi immediately in a shallow bowl, garnished with any remaining parsley.
