Step 1

Begin by melting butter with the olive oil in a saute pan over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the chopped garlic for just about 30 seconds before adding a single layer of shrimp. Season with salt and pepper. Do not crowd your pan. If you are cooking a large number of shrimp do them in smaller batches.

Step 3

Cook the shrimp for only about a minute per side, depending on the size. Be careful not to overcook the shrimp.

Step 4

Remove the shrimp from the pan and add the lemon juice,wine (and chili flakes if desired.)

Step 5

Cook the sauce down to about half and return the shrimp to the pan along with the herbs, red pepper and lemon zest. Toss together for another minute or two before tossing in the cooked pasta.

Step 6

Serve with lemon wedges for garnish.
