How to Make Barefoot Contessa's Linguine With Shrimp Scampi
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 1 tablespoon of salt and the linguine. Drizzle with olive oil to prevent sticking. Cook according to package directions, usually 7-10 minutes, until al dente.
- While the pasta cooks, melt 4 tablespoons of butter and 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-low heat.
- Add 6 cloves of minced garlic to the skillet.
- Sauté for 1 minute, being careful not to burn the garlic.
- Add 1 pound of shrimp, 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Sauté for 5 minutes, or until the shrimp turn pink, stirring frequently.
- Remove the skillet from the heat. Stir in 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1 tablespoon lemon zest, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 2 lemon slices, and 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (or more, to taste).
- Once the pasta is cooked, drain it and add it directly to the skillet with the shrimp and sauce.
- Toss everything together to coat the pasta evenly.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
