1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 lemon, zested
1 pound linguine pasta
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 shallots, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
16 ounces frozen shrimp
1/4 cup lemon juice (about 2 lemons)

Provided by Kushi

Categories     Dinner     Lunch

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 19

16 Jumbo shrimps (deveined with shell and tail on)
2 tbsp Milk
2 tbsp All-purpose flour
1 tsp Paprika ( or Red chilli powder or Red pepper flakes)
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Garlic powder
1/2 tsp Dried basil ( or mint or parsley)
2 tbsp Olive oil (or Butter for shallow frying)
1 Small onion (finely chopped)
6 Garlic cloves (whole, check tips)
2 tbsp Butter (add more if needed)
1 tbsp Olive oil
1 Tomato (finely chopped)
1 pint Heavy cream
1/2 tsp Salt (adjust to taste)
1 tsp Red pepper flakes (optional, add more for garnish if desired)
1 tbsp Cilantro (or Parsley or Basil, finely chopped, add more for garnish)
2 tbsp Parmesan cheese (grated, use more for garnish if desired)
8 oz Angel hair pasta (or Linguine or Spaghetti or any pasta of your choice)

Steps:

  • In a large bowl add flour, milk, paprika powder, garlic powder, salt, and herbs, and mix well. To this, add fresh (or thawed) and deveined shrimp and mix well until all shrimp are coated in the flour mixture.
  • In a nonstick pan on medium heat, add olive oil or butter. Once the oil is hot, or butter is melted, add shrimp and cook on each side for about two minutes, or until they are cooked but still tender and juicy.
  • In a saucepan on medium heat, add oil and butter, finely chopped onion, and garlic cloves. Sauté until onions just begin to start developing light golden color.
  • Next, add tomatoes, heavy cream, salt to taste, and red pepper flakes if desired, and bring it to a boil. Add finely chopped cilantro and parmesan cheese, and continue to simmer the sauce for 5 more minutes or until it just begins to thicken.
  • Meanwhile, in a large pot, bring water to a rolling boil. Add salt to season this water, and then add angel hair pasta. This cooks really fast, so drain the hot water in about 4 minutes. Drizzle some olive oil if you want to prevent the pasta from sticking to one another.
  • Once the sauce thickens, toss it with the pasta and shrimp scampi you prepared from step I.
  • Garnish it with cilantro, pepper flakes, and parmesan cheese if desired. Enjoy.

SHRIMP SCAMPI WITH LINGUINI



Shrimp Scampi with Linguini image

Dine seaside tonight with Tyler Florence's Shrimp Scampi with Linguini recipe from Food Network: Lemon, garlic and white wine meet hearty shrimp and pasta.

Provided by Tyler Florence

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound linguini
4 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
2 shallots, finely diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
Pinch red pepper flakes, optional
1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup dry white wine
Juice of 1 lemon
1/4 cup finely chopped parsley leaves

Steps:

  • For the pasta, put a large pot of water on the stove to boil. When it has come to the boil, add a couple of tablespoons of salt and the linguini. Stir to make sure the pasta separates; cover. When the water returns to a boil, cook for about 6 to 8 minutes or until the pasta is not quite done. Drain the pasta.
  • Meanwhile, in a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter in 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high heat. Saute the shallots, garlic, and red pepper flakes (if using) until the shallots are translucent, about 3 to 4 minutes. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper; add them to the pan and cook until they have turned pink, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the shrimp from the pan; set aside and keep warm. Add wine and lemon juice and bring to a boil. Add 2 tablespoons butter and 2 tablespoons oil. When the butter has melted, return the shrimp to the pan along with the parsley and cooked pasta. Stir well and season with salt and pepper. Drizzle over a bit more olive oil and serve immediately.

Tips for Making Shrimp Scampi with Linguini:

  • Use fresh shrimp: Fresh shrimp have a sweeter, more delicate flavor than frozen shrimp. If you can, buy shrimp that are already peeled and deveined to save time.
  • Cook the shrimp properly: Shrimp cook very quickly, so it's important not to overcook them. Cook them until they are just pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Use a good quality olive oil: Olive oil is the traditional fat used to make shrimp scampi. Choose a good quality olive oil that has a fruity, peppery flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the shrimp, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the shrimp from cooking evenly.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as parsley, basil, and thyme, add a lot of flavor to shrimp scampi. Use them sparingly, as they can easily overpower the dish.
  • Serve immediately: Shrimp scampi is best served immediately after it is cooked. The shrimp will start to toughen up if you let it sit for too long.

Conclusion:

Shrimp scampi with linguini is a classic Italian dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. The combination of shrimp, garlic, butter, and white wine is simply delicious. Follow these tips to make the best shrimp scampi with linguini you've ever had!
