Lemon and White Wine Shrimp Scampi with Asparagus image

Bright and fresh shrimp scampi pasta with wine and lemon juice! Sometimes I just throw the asparagus right in with it because it comes out so good! I've tried several white wines with this, but my favorite flavor is with a Sauvignon Blanc. You can also make this with scallops and thin spaghetti.

Time 45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 (16 ounce) package linguine pasta
1 onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced, or to taste
4 lemons, juiced, or more to taste
1 pound asparagus, cut into pieces
1 ½ cups dry white wine
1 pound small shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 (4 ounce) jar capers
1 pinch Italian seasoning, or to taste
salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese, or to taste

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water and 1 tablespoon olive oil to a boil. Cook linguine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes.
  • Heat remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion; cook and stir until softened and translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in juice of 2 lemons and stir well. Add asparagus; cook until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in white wine. Reduce heat; simmer until thickened and reduced, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in shrimp; cook until they are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Mix in remaining lemon juice and capers until you have reached your desired flavor. Season with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  • Toss cooked pasta with sauce. Serve topped with Parmesan cheese.

The sauce was a bit too thin for my liking. I think I'll try adding some cornstarch next time to thicken it up.

This dish was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more garlic and pepper next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my shrimp turned out a bit overcooked. I think I'll cook them for a shorter amount of time next time.

This dish was a bit too salty for my taste, but it was still good. I think I'll try using less salt next time.
