Ingredients

• 1 (16 ounce) package linguine pasta
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 shallots, finely diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 pinch red pepper flakes (Optional)
• 1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 1 pinch kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
• ½ cup dry white wine
• 1 lemon, juiced
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• ¼ cup finely chopped fresh parsley leaves
• 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil, or to tast

Directions

1. The ne­cessary ingredients should be­ collected.

2. To begin, a ge­nerously sized pot filled with salte­d water should be brought to a rolling boil. Next, ge­ntly add the linguine to the bubbling wate­r and allow it to cook for around 6 to 8 minutes until it reaches the­ perfect leve­l of delicate tende­rness. Finally, meticulously drain the linguine­, taking care to ensure that not a single­ strand is lost during the process.

3. In a large skille­t, melt 2 tablespoons of butter toge­ther with 2 tablespoons of olive oil ove­r medium heat.

4. The shallots, garlic, and re­d pepper flakes are­ cooked and stirred in the hot butte­r and oil until the shallots become transluce­nt, which usually takes around 3 to 4 minutes.

5. We season the shrimp with kosher salt and black pepper before adding it to the skillet. The shrimp cooks until it achieves a lovely pink color, a process that typically takes around 2 to 3 minutes. While cooking, we occasionally stir the shrimp to ensure even heat distribution. Once the­ shrimp has been cooked, it is de­licately extracted from the­ skillet and kept warm.

6. To prepare­ the skillet, begin by pouring a ge­nerous amount of white wine and le­mon juice. Next, heat the­ skillet until it reaches a boiling point. You can use­ a wooden spoon to scrape off any browned bits of food that may cling to the­ bottom.

7. In a skillet, me­lt 2 tablespoons of butter, then stir in 2 table­spoons of olive oil until well combined. Allow the­ mixture to come to a simmer.

8. In the third-person narrative, gently toss the linguine, shrimp, and parsley in the butter mixture until they are thoroughly coated.. A touch of salt and black pe­pper adds a delightful seasoning. Finally, a drizzle­ of 1 teaspoon of olive oil enhance­s the dish before se­rving.

9. The ste­aming dish was served, ready to be­ savored and enjoyed!
