Bring a small pot of salted water to a boil and cook the linguine according to package directions until al dente.
Reserve 2 tablespoons of the starchy pasta water before draining the noodles and setting them aside.
While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil and butter in a medium skillet over medium heat until the butter is melted and bubbling.
Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes to the skillet, sautéing for about 1 minute until the garlic is fragrant but not browned.
Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer, seasoning with sea salt and black pepper.
Cook the shrimp for 2 minutes per side until they are pink and opaque, then stir in the lemon juice and reserved pasta water.
Add the cooked linguine and chopped fresh parsley to the skillet, tossing everything together for 1 minute until the sauce coats the pasta evenly.
Serve immediately while the sauce is silky and the shrimp are tender.
