Ingredients
- 1 pound Large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 4 cloves Garlic, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
- 0.5 cup Dry white wine
- 1 whole Lemon, juiced and zested
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 12 ounces Cooked linguine or pasta of choice
Directions
Step 1
Prepare the shrimp by peeling and deveining if not already done.
Step 2
In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter.
Step 3
Once the butter has melted, add minced garlic and red pepper flakes, sautéing for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 4
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the shrimp. Cook the shrimp for 1-2 minutes on each side until they are pink and cooked through; remove the shrimp and set aside.
Step 5
To the same skillet, add the white wine, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Allow the wine to reduce by half, approximately 2-3 minutes.
Step 6
Lower the heat to medium-low and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, swirling to create a silky sauce.
Step 7
Return the shrimp to the skillet and add salt, pepper, and chopped parsley. Stir well to coat the shrimp in the sauce.
Step 8
Add the cooked linguine to the skillet, tossing until well combined and heated through.
Step 9
Serve warm, garnished with additional parsley and lemon wedges if desired.
