Ingredients diff

  • 12 oz linguine
  • 1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 1/3 cup dry white wine
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp chopped parsley
  • Kosher salt and black pepper, to taste

Steps diff

  • Cook linguine in salted water until just shy of al dente; reserve 1 cup pasta water.
  • Warm butter and olive oil in a large skillet and cook garlic briefly until fragrant.
  • Add shrimp in one layer and cook 1 to 2 minutes per side until just pink.
  • Add wine and lemon, then a splash of pasta water to form a light glossy sauce.
  • Toss in pasta and parsley and serve immediately.

Technique notes diff

  • Quick shrimp sear | High heat sets proteins fast before overcooking. | Shrimp should stay plump and juicy.
  • Tight doneness window for lean proteins | Fish and shellfish proteins denature quickly, so short cook/cure windows preserve moisture. | This dish tastes best when seafood remains tender and not chalky.
