Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, place the panko breadcrumbs in a small dry skillet over medium heat and toast until golden brown and fragrant, then set aside.
In a large skillet, melt the ghee over medium heat and add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes, sautéing for 1 minute until aromatic.
Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer, seasoning with sea salt and black pepper, and cook for 2 minutes per side until pink and opaque.
Reserve 0.25 cup of the pasta cooking water, then drain the pasta and add it directly to the skillet with the shrimp.
Toss the pasta and shrimp with the lemon juice, fresh parsley, and a splash of the reserved pasta water to create a light sauce.
Divide the pasta into bowls and top each portion with the toasted breadcrumbs before serving immediately.
