Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Kosher salt
12 ounces linguine
1 1/4 pounds large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
5 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/3 cup dry white wine
Juice of 1/2 lemon, plus wedges for serving
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the linguine and cook as the label directs. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain.
  • Meanwhile, season the shrimp with salt. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook until the garlic is just golden, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add the shrimp and cook, stirring occasionally, until pink and just cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Remove the shrimp to a plate. Add the wine and lemon juice to the skillet and simmer until slightly reduced, 2 minutes.
  • Return the shrimp and any juices from the plate to the skillet along with the linguine, butter and 1/2 cup of the reserved cooking water. Continue to cook, tossing, until the butter is melted and the shrimp is hot, about 2 minutes, adding more of the reserved cooking water as needed. Season with salt; stir in the parsley. Serve with lemon wedges.

CLASSIC SHRIMP SCAMPI



Classic Shrimp Scampi image

Scampi are tiny, lobster-like crustaceans with pale pink shells (also called langoustines). Italian cooks in the United States swapped shrimp for scampi, but kept both names. Thus the dish was born, along with inevitable variations. This classic recipe makes a simple garlic, white wine and butter sauce that goes well with a pile of pasta or with a hunk of crusty bread. However you make the dish, once the shrimp are added to the pan, the trick is to cook them just long enough that they turn pink all over, but not until their bodies curl into rounds with the texture of tires.

Tips:

  • Use Fresh Mushrooms: Fresh mushrooms have a more robust flavor and texture than canned or dried mushrooms.
  • Clean Mushrooms Properly: Use a damp cloth or brush to clean the mushrooms. Avoid washing them under running water, as this can make them waterlogged.
  • Slice Mushrooms Evenly: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Use High-Quality Butter: Butter adds a rich flavor to the pasta scampi. Use unsalted butter so you can control the saltiness of the dish.
  • Cook the Shrimp Properly: Shrimp cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Shrimp is cooked when it turns pink and opaque.
  • Use a Good Quality White Wine: The white wine adds flavor to the sauce. Choose a dry white wine that you would enjoy drinking.
  • Add Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs, such as parsley, basil, and oregano, add a pop of flavor to the pasta scampi.
  • Serve Immediately: Pasta scampi is best served immediately after it is cooked. The pasta will start to absorb the sauce and become mushy if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

Mushroom pasta scampi is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The combination of mushrooms, shrimp, and scampi sauce is sure to please everyone at the table. This dish is also a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give mushroom pasta scampi a try.
