Ingredients

1 pound linguine - 2.4 dash
1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined - 2.3 lb
4 tablespoons butter - 4.9 dash
4 tablespoons olive oil - 8.5 package
4 cloves garlic, minced - 0.6 inch
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste) - 3.6 cm
1/4 cup dry white wine (optional) - 0.9 to taste
2 tablespoons lemon juice - 5.4 g
Salt and black pepper to taste - 7.9 pcs
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley - 1.2 dash

Cooking Steps

Step 1

Cook the linguine according to package directions until al dente. Reserve about 1 cup of pasta water before draining.

Step 2

While the pasta is cooking, melt butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and red pepper flakes, cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Step 3

Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook until pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side.

Step 4

Pour in the white wine (if using) and lemon juice. Let it simmer for a minute, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.

Step 5

Stir in the drained linguine and toss to coat. Add some of the reserved pasta water if needed to create a light sauce.

Step 6

Season with salt, pepper, and fresh parsley. Serve immediately.

Step 7

Garnish with extra parsley and lemon wedges if desired.
