1lbShrimpI used my favorite Red Agrentinian Shrimp for this recipe! (I used the whole bag)
8ozPastaI used the Parpadelle Nests again - they've been my favorite recently!
Salt and Pepper to taste
¼tspRed Pepper Flakes
Parsley and Parmesan to garnishOptional
Instructions
Boil your water for the pasta and cook your pasta according to the package directions.
Cook your shrimp in a medium pan on medium-high heat until thoroughly cooked. Add your salt and pepper once nearly cooked all the way. I like to set this aside once done cooking.
In the same pan on medium heat, melt your butter and saute your galric and shalltos until fragrant (1-2 minutes). Stir this together with the shrimp bits that were leftover to soak up all the delicious flavor!
Juice the lemon and add this to your pan. Add the pasta water and red pepper flakes here. Drop the heat to low and let this cook down for 1-2 minutes.
Once the pasta is done cooking, add it into the pan and let this all come together.
Top the pasta with your shrimp, parsley and parmesan. Enjoy!
