Bring water and salt to a boil in a large pot. Add the linguine and cook for 9 to 11 minutes until al dente. Reserve a small splash of pasta water, then drain the noodles.
While the pasta cooks, melt the butter in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
Increase the heat to medium-high. Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, flip, and cook for 2 minutes more until opaque and pink. Done when opaque and firm, 145°F.
Stir in the lemon juice, parsley, and the reserved pasta water. Add the cooked linguine to the skillet and toss well to coat the noodles in the garlic butter sauce.
