Here's how to make it:

Ingredients:
  • 8 oz linguine or your favorite pasta

Instructions:
  1. Cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving some pasta water.
  2. Season the shrimp with salt and black pepper.
  3. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  4. Add the seasoned shrimp to the skillet and cook until pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  5. Stir in the lemon zest, lemon juice, and chopped parsley. Toss to coat the shrimp evenly.
