Steps:
- Dissolve the kosher salt in 1 gallon of water in a large pot. Add the shrimp, and refrigerate 2 to 4 hours. Drain and pat shrimp dry with paper towels.
- Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the angel hair pasta, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through but is still firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
- Meanwhile, melt the butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Stir in the garlic, and cook until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the shrimp, white wine, lemon juice, and red pepper flakes. Cook and stir until the shrimp is no longer translucent in the center, about 6 minutes. Stir in the black pepper, parsley, and lemon zest before tossing with the angel hair pasta.

LEMON-GARLIC BAKED SHRIMP
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450°F.
- Thinly slice garlic and shell shrimp. Very coarsely chop parsley. In an 8-inch round shallow baking dish bake garlic in oil in middle of oven 5 minutes, or until garlic is lightly colored. Add shrimp, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste and toss to combine. Bake shrimp, turning them once, until just cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in remaining tablespoon lemon juice.
- Sprinkle parsley over shrimp and serve with bread.
Tips:
- Choose fresh shrimp: Fresh shrimp should have a firm texture and a slightly briny smell. Avoid shrimp that are slimy or have a strong fishy odor.
- Use a large baking dish: You need a baking dish that is large enough to accommodate the shrimp in a single layer. If you use a dish that is too small, the shrimp will steam instead of bake.
- Don't overcrowd the shrimp: Overcrowding the shrimp will prevent them from cooking evenly. Make sure there is at least 1 inch of space between each shrimp.
- Season the shrimp well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika to season the shrimp. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste.
- Bake the shrimp until they are cooked through: The shrimp should be cooked through when they are opaque and firm. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and chewy.
- Serve the shrimp immediately: Serve the shrimp immediately with the lemon-garlic sauce. The shrimp can also be served over rice, pasta, or vegetables.
Conclusion:
Baked shrimp in lemon-garlic sauce is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. The shrimp are tender and juicy, and the lemon-garlic sauce is flavorful and tangy. This dish can be served with rice, pasta, or vegetables, and it is also a great appetizer. With a few simple tips, you can make this dish perfect every time.
