How to Make Spicy Shrimp And Spaghetti Ay Oy
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add 1 pound of spaghetti and cook according to package directions, until al dente.
- About 2 minutes before the spaghetti is done, add 1 pound of frozen, peeled, and deveined shrimp to the pasta water.
- Once the spaghetti is cooked, drain the pasta and shrimp together, reserving about 1/2 cup of pasta water. Return the pasta and shrimp to the pot.
- Add 2 tablespoons of butter and 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the pot. Cook over medium heat until the butter is melted.
- Add 4 cloves of minced garlic and the zest and juice of 1 lemon to the pot. Cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.
- Stir in 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper (or to taste), for a delicious spicy kick.
- Toss the shrimp and spaghetti in the butter sauce, adding a little reserved pasta water if needed to loosen the sauce.
- Serve immediately, topped with grated Parmesan cheese (optional).
