Garlic Butter Shrimp Scampi

Preparing the Shrimp In a large bowl, combine the shrimp, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, and a pinch of salt. Toss to coat the shrimp evenly.

Cooking the Shrimp In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned shrimp to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until pink and opaque. If using, pour in the white wine and lemon juice, then simmer for another minute.

Finishing the Dish Stir in the chopped parsley and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Remove the skillet from heat.

Serving the Dish Arrange the cooked linguine on a serving platter, then top with the garlic butter shrimp scampi. Garnish with lemon wedges and fresh parsley. Serve with a side of crusty bread if desired.
