Ingredients

Directions

Step 1: Cook pasta according to package directions. Reserve 1 cup pasta water before draining.

Step 2: In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Step 3: Add shrimp, season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cook 2-3 minutes per side until pink.

Step 4: Remove shrimp to a plate. Add wine and lemon juice to pan, scraping up any browned bits.

Step 5: Simmer sauce for 2 minutes to reduce slightly.

Step 6: Return shrimp to pan, add cooked pasta and parsley. Toss to combine, adding pasta water if needed.

Step 7: Serve immediately with extra lemon wedges.

Chef's Tip: Don't overcook the shrimp - they're done when pink and opaque. Save some pasta water to thin the sauce if needed.
