Directions
- 1
Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente according to package directions. Reserve a small amount of the pasta water, then drain.
- 2
While the pasta cooks, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook just until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- 3
Pat the shrimp dry, then season with the salt and black pepper. Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook 2–3 minutes per side, until pink and opaque.
- 4
Add the drained pasta to the skillet and toss to coat in the garlic butter. If the mixture seems dry, add a splash of reserved pasta water to loosen and gloss the sauce.
- 5
Taste and adjust seasoning if desired. Serve immediately.
