Ingredients:
1 lb of peeled and deveined shrimp
1/2 box of linguine pasta
1/4 cup diced parsley
1 whole lemon, juiced
2 tbsp white wine
4 cloves of garlic
4 tbsp of salted butter
Liberal extra virgin olive oil
Pinch of Salt
Grated Parmesan Cheese
Ingredients for Shrimp:
1 tsp Pepper
1 tsp salt
1 tsp Crushed red pepper flakes
1 Tbsp Lemon Juice
Steps:
Boil 8 cups of water in a large pot, and add some sea salt when boiling. Add the pasta and boil to the package directions. Save 1/4 cup of pasta water and set to the side.
Pat dry the shrimp, and season with salt, pepper, crushed red pepper flakes and lemon juice. Set aside for 10 minutes while preparing other ingredients.
Heat a pan over medium high heat, and add a few tablespoons of olive oil. Add the shrimp, 7-9 at a time and sear them for a few minutes, flipping in-between. Do NOT over cook as we will add these back into the pasta. Set aside when all are cooked.
De-glaze the pan that the shrimped was cooked in by pouring in white wine and bringing down to a simmer. Stir to make sure the "Remnants" from the cooked shrimp ar combining with the wine.
Add the lemon juice, garlic, and butter. Continue stirring occasionally to make a fragrant broth. Add back the pasta, the pasta water, a pinch of salt, parsley, and stir the noodles into the broth to ensure everything soaks in. Add the shrimp back in, plus another tablespoon of olive oil. After a few minutes, transfer the pasta to a large bowl. Sprinkle fresh grated Parmesan cheese on top and any remaining parsley. Enjoy! Makes 8 servings.
