Garlic Butter Shrimp Scampi
Sautéed succulent shrimp tossed in a fragrant garlic and lemon ghee sauce over whole wheat linguine for a bright and zesty finish.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz shrimp
2 oz whole wheat linguine
0.5 tbsp ghee
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
3 cloves garlic
0.25 tsp red pepper flakes
1 whole lemon
2 tbsp fresh parsley
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Boil a pot of salted water and cook the whole wheat linguine according to package directions until al dente. Reserve 2 tablespoons of pasta water before draining.
Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and season with sea salt and black pepper.
In a large skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil and ghee. Once melted, add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes, sautéing for 1 minute until fragrant.
Increase heat to medium-high and add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 2 minutes per side until pink and opaque.
Zest the lemon to yield 1 teaspoon and juice it to yield 1 tablespoon.
Stir the lemon juice, lemon zest, and reserved pasta water into the skillet to create a light sauce.
Add the cooked linguine and chopped fresh parsley to the skillet, tossing everything together until the pasta is well coated and glossy.
