How to Make Garlic Shrimp Lemon And Feta Spaghetti

  1. Cook spaghetti according to package directions until al dente. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining.
  2. While pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the chopped onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes, or until softened.
  4. Add the minced garlic and shrimp. Cook, stirring frequently, for 2-3 minutes, or until the shrimp turns pink.
  5. Pour in the white wine and bring to a simmer. Cook for 1 minute, or until the shrimp is cooked through.
  6. Remove from heat and stir in the lemon zest and lemon juice.
  7. Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet along with a few tablespoons of the reserved pasta water.
  8. Add the crumbled feta cheese and parsley. Toss gently to combine, adding more pasta water if needed to create a light sauce.
  9. Season generously with freshly cracked black pepper.
  10. Serve immediately with crusty bread and a fresh green salad.
