Succulent shrimp sautéed in a fragrant garlic and ghee sauce, tossed with whole wheat pasta and vibrant spinach for a silky finish.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz shrimp
2 oz whole wheat spaghetti
0.5 tbsp ghee
3 cloves garlic
1 cup fresh baby spinach
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.25 tsp red pepper flakes
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat spaghetti according to package directions until al dente.
Reserve 2 tablespoons of the starchy pasta water before draining the noodles.
Pat the shrimp completely dry with paper towels and season them evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the ghee in a large skillet over medium heat and add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes, sautéing for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer and cook for 2 minutes per side until they turn pink and opaque.
Stir in the fresh baby spinach and cook for 1 minute until the leaves are just wilted.
Add the cooked pasta, reserved pasta water, and lemon juice to the skillet, tossing everything together to create a light sauce.
Garnish the dish with fresh chopped parsley and serve immediately while hot.
