Ingredients
- 1/4 cup of chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons of lemon juice
- One and a half pounds of shrimp uncooked and deveined
- 2 tablespoons of butter
- 1/4 cup of Romano cheese grated
- Teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon of pepper
- One-quarter teaspoon of red pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil (Affiliate Link)
- 4 teaspoons of minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon of freshly chopped parsley
- 1 tablespoon of freshly chopped basil
- One box of gluten-free spaghetti
Instructions
- Place the frozen shrimp in the refrigerator to defrost a bit before using it. Do this in the morning.
- Prep and cut all the ingredients above.
- Chopped the fresh parsley and fresh basil finely. Set aside.
- Mince the garlic, and set aside. Set all the ingredients aside because when you are ready to cook, it will go fast.
- Cooked pasta as instructed. It will take about 10 minutes. That should be plenty of time to make the sauce and cook the shrimp.
- Now, heat the skillet.
- Add the olive oil (Affiliate Link) to the skillet and add the butter to the skillet. Wait for the butter to melt, then add the garlic and red pepper flakes. Sauté for a few minutes.
- Then add the shrimp. Cook for 3 minutes and turn over and cook for 3 minutes or until done. When you turn it over, add pepper, parsley, basil, chicken broth, and lemon juice, then sauté for the remaining 3 minutes or so. The broth should evaporate a little.
- When the spaghetti is finished, drain it and add it to the top of the ingredients in the skillet.
- Toss gently, so the shrimp is on the top. The heat doesn’t need to be on when tossing.
- Add the Romano cheese and toss some more.
- Let sit for a few minutes to help thicken the sauce. Enjoy warm.
