Parmesan-Crusted Shrimp Scampi with Pasta recipe

Directions Parmesan-Crusted Shrimp Scampi with Pasta

Directions

1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook angel hair pasta in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain and set aside.

2. Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.

3. Heat 1/4 cup butter over medium heat in a large, deep skillet. Add garlic, cook and stir until fragrant. Add shrimp, white wine, and lemon juice, continue to cook and stir until shrimp is bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, about 5 minutes. Stir in red pepper flakes until well combined. Remove from heat and set aside.

4. Place remaining 1/4 cup butter, bread crumbs, 1/2 the Parmesan cheese, and parsley in a bowl. Stir until well combined. Set aside.

5. Place cooked pasta into shrimp scampi mixture, toss until fully coated in sauce. Add remaining Parmesan cheese and toss well. Top with bread crumb mixture.

6. Broil in the preheated oven until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Serve immediately.
