Shrimp Scampi Linguine
Shrimp Scampi Linguine. Shrimp sauteed in a lemon garlic butter sauce tossed with linguine pasta and made in less than 20 minutes.
Servings: 4
Equipment
- 12 inch cast iron skillet
- non stick skillets
- spatula set
Ingredients
- 3/4 lb. Linguine Pasta
- 4 Tablespoons Butter
- 3 Tablespoons Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
- 3 Garlic Cloves (finely minced)
- 1 lb. Large Shrimp, peeled and devined
- 1 - 1 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon Pepper
- 1/4 cup Fresh Parsley (chopped)
- 1/4 cup Fresh Lemon Juice
- 1/2 Lemon, zest (grated)
- 1/4 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes
Instructions
- Heat a large pot of water over high heat. Generously salt the water. Bring to a boil and cook linguine according to package instructions. Drain.
- While pasta is cooking, heat a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add butter and olive oil. Add garlic and saute for 1 minute, stirring often (garlic burns easily to watch carefully). Add the shrimp and saute until the shrimp turn pink, about 5 minutes. Don't overcook the shrimp as they can become rubbery.
- Remove from heat and add salt, pepper, parsley, lemon juice, lemon zest, and red pepper flakes. Toss to combine.
- Toss shrimp and sauce with linguine. Drizzle with extra melted butter and extra-virgin olive oil, if so desired.
