Lemon-Parmesan Angel Hair Pasta with Shrimp

Three and half years later and I’m finally sharing a shrimp recipe! I have been blogging for quite some time now and I’ve never shared a shrimp recipe on here. I haven’t ever really cared for shrimp but I know a lot of you like it so I figured it was due time.

Ingredients

• 1 1/4 lbs peeled and deveined shrimp
• 12 oz dry angel hair pasta
• 3 Tbsp olive oil
• 3 Tbsp unsalted butter
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 3 cloves garlic , minced
• 1 1/2 tsp lemon zest
• 3 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
• 3 Tbsp chopped fresh basil
• 3 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley
• 1/2 cup finely shredded parmesan

Instructions

1. Cook pasta in salted water according to directions listed on package (keep in mind it will only take about 4 minutes so I recommend adding the pasta to water when you begin cooking the shrimp), reserve 1/2 cup pasta water before draining.
2. In a large skillet, heat olive and butter over medium-high heat. Add shrimp (you can remove tails first if desired), season with salt and pepper and saute 2 minutes, then add garlic and saute until shrimp has cooked through, about 2 minutes longer.
