Garlic Butter Shrimp Scampi
Succulent shrimp sautéed in a fragrant garlic-ghee sauce with bright lemon zest, served over protein-rich chickpea pasta and wilted spinach.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz shrimp
1.5 oz chickpea pasta
0.5 tbsp ghee
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
3 clove garlic
2 cup fresh baby spinach
0.25 cup fresh parsley
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.5 tsp lemon zest
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp red pepper flakes
PREPARATION
Cook the chickpea pasta in a pot of boiling salted water according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and season with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the ghee and extra virgin olive oil.
Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes to the skillet, sautéing for 1 minute until highly aromatic.
Increase the heat slightly and add the shrimp in a single layer, cooking for 2 minutes per side until opaque and pink.
Add the baby spinach to the skillet and stir for 30 seconds until it begins to wilt.
Drain the pasta and add it directly to the skillet along with the lemon juice, lemon zest, and fresh parsley.
Toss all ingredients together for 1 minute to ensure the pasta is well-coated in the garlic butter sauce, then serve immediately.
