Spaghetti Shrimp Scampi is a classic Italian-American dish made with cooked spaghetti, shrimp, garlic, butter and white wine. This tasty dinner can be served as an entree or side dish and pairs nicely with a fresh green salad.
Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add pasta and cook it as per the package instructions.
Next, heat up a frying pan over a medium flame. Add the olive oil followed by butter.
Once butter is melted, add the garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add shrimp then season it with salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes. Fry on both sides until they turn pink, 2 to 4 minutes.
Remove the cooked pasta from boiling water and transfer it into the frying pan with shrimp mixture. Add wine, lemon juice, and parsley. Cook for a minute.
