I have a bazillion recipe books checked out from the library, to get new ideas from. One of them is “Barefoot Contessa –Family Style” from which I made this and it was SO good!
Linguine with Shrimp Scampi
Serves 6
Oil
Salt
1 ½ lbs linguine
6 Tblsp Butter
5 Tbls Olive Oil
3 Tbl Minced Garlic
2 lb large Shrimp- Ready To Eat
½ tsp Fresh Ground Black Pepper
¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
Grated zest of 1 lemon
½ cup Fresh lemon juice- 4 lemons
½ lemon thinly sliced in half rounds
¼ tsp red pepper flakes
Cook noodles in large pan of salt water, with a drizzle of oil- according to package directions.
Meanwhile, in large heavy bottom pan, melt butter and olive oil over medium-low heat.
Saute garlic 1 minute while stirring. Add shrimp and @ 2 tsp Salt and pepper . Saute 5 minutes, stirring often. Remove from heat, add lemon juice, zest, slices, parsley and red pepper. Toss to combine. When pasta is done, drain the cooked linguine, and then pour back into pot. Immediately add the shrimp and sauce. Toss well and Serve!
