Cook

Step 1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add most of the Salt and the Linguine; cook until just shy of al dente, about 9 minutes. Reserve some pasta water, then drain.
Step 2. Meanwhile, heat the Olive Oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the Shrimp and the rest of the Salt; cook, turning once, until pink and just opaque, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
Step 3. Lower the heat to medium. Add the Garlic and Red Pepper Flakes to the skillet and stir until fragrant and the garlic is pale golden, about 1 minute.
Step 4. Pour in the White Wine and scrape up any browned bits. Simmer until reduced by about half, about 3 minutes.
Step 5. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the Butter and juice from the Lemon. Add the drained pasta and toss with a splash of reserved pasta water until glossy, about 2 minutes; add more pasta water as needed.

Finish & serve

Step 6. Return the shrimp and any juices to the skillet. Toss with the Fresh Parsley until the shrimp are warmed through, about 1 minute, then serve.

Tips

Swap it

For a wine-free sauce, substitute unsalted chicken stock for the white wine.

Good to know

Keep the shrimp in a single layer and cook them in batches if your skillet is crowded.
