How to Make Easy Shrimp Fettuccine
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add fettuccine and cook according to package directions, until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water before draining.
- While the pasta cooks, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shrimp and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until pink and opaque. Remove shrimp from skillet and set aside.
- Add minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
- Stir in lemon juice, chicken broth, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 1 minute, allowing the sauce to slightly thicken.
- Add the cooked fettuccine to the skillet and toss to coat with the sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add a little of the reserved pasta water to loosen it.
- Stir in the cooked shrimp and parsley. Serve immediately and enjoy!
