Add the lemon juice, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper to the sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet and toss to coat them in the sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.
Add the cooked angel hair pasta to the skillet along with the reserved pasta water. Toss everything together gently to combine and coat the pasta in the flavorful sauce.
Remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the top.
