Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 half cup dry white wine or chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoons red pepper flakes
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 8 ounces spaghetti or linguine
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated (optional)
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the spaghetti or linguine according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, heat 2 tablespoons of butter and 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to let it burn.
Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side until pink and opaque, then flip the shrimp and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
Deglaze the skillet with the white wine (or chicken broth), scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Allow the liquid to simmer for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.
Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
Return the shrimp to the skillet, tossing them to coat in the sauce. Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the chopped parsley.
Toss the cooked pasta with the shrimp and sauce in the skillet until well combined.
Serve the shrimp scampi immediately, garnished with additional parsley and grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.
