Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Cook the linguine pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the shrimp to the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

  3. In the same skillet, melt the butter. Add minced garlic and red pepper flakes, and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

  4. Pour in the white wine and lemon juice, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.

  5. Add the cooked shrimp back to the skillet and toss to coat in the flavorful sauce. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to heat the shrimp through.

  6. Add the cooked linguine pasta to the skillet, along with chopped parsley. Toss everything together until the pasta is well coated in the sauce and the ingredients are evenly distributed.

  7. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.

  8. Serve the Shrimp Scampi Pasta hot, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese and extra chopped parsley for an added burst of freshness.
