Best 5 Ingredient Garlic Shrimp Pasta Recipes

5-INGREDIENT GARLICKY SHRIMP PASTA

Steps:

• Fill a medium pot with water. Bring to a boil and season with salt. It should taste as salty as the sea. Because we're only using 1/2 lb of pasta, you do not need to fill a HUGE pot with water, you want the water to be starchy since we're using it in the sauce. I like for the water to only come up about 1/2-inch over the pasta.
• Heat a large skillet to a medium heat. Add 4 tablespoons butter. Once butter melts, add garlic. Saute for 2 minutes. Be careful not to burn.
• While the garlic cooks, season the shrimp on both sides with salt and pepper. Add shrimp to the skillet with the butter and garlic. At the same time, add the pasta to the boiling water. Cook shrimp until bright pink and curled up, about 3-4 minutes. Cook pasta until aldente.
• Once the shrimp are done, if the pasta isn't cooked yet, remove from heat. (You don't want them to overcook. When the pasta is done, add to the shrimp, garlic, and butter, return to the heat but reduce it to low. Add red pepper flakes and 1/2 cup of pasta water. Toss to combine, and then add remaining 1 tablespoon of butter, toss again. If needed, add more pasta water to create desired consistency (I added another 1/2 cup). Season pasta with salt and pepper.
