METHOD

Step 1

Cook the spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Step 2

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 3

Add the fresh shrimp to the skillet, season with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes, and cook until the shrimp are pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side.

Step 4

Pour in the white wine and lemon juice, stirring to combine. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 2-3 minutes.

Step 5

Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet, tossing gently to coat in the sauce and shrimp.

Step 6

Remove from heat. Stir in chopped parsley for garnish and additional seasoning if needed.

Step 7

Serve immediately, garnished with extra parsley and a squeeze of lemon, if desired.
