Step 1

Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and then the shallots and garlic to cook in the oil. Season generously with salt, and cook, stirring occasionally until the shallots are golden brown and caramelized. This will take 15 to 20 minutes.

Step 2

Add in your Calabrian chili paste, lemon juice and lemon zest, and cook stirring constantly. Add the tomato paste and season with more salt and pepper, scorching until the tomato paste has started to turn from a red to a deeper red color, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Stir in the chicken broth and parsley, then add in the shrimp, once again stirring constantly. The shrimp will have started to cook as soon as they hit the hot liquid, and when they are pink, they are cooked completely. This should only take 3-5 minutes.

Step 4

Cook pasta of choice according to the package, then add low carb pasta to the skillet along with your parmesan cheese. Stir to combine. Garnish with more cheese, parsley, slices of lemon, olive oil, fresh cracked black pepper, and Calabrian chili paste if desired.
