How to Make Gordon Ramsay Shrimp Scampi
- Start by boiling salted water in a large pot. Add linguine or spaghetti and cook until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta water before draining.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil and unsalted butter over medium-high heat. Add large shrimp, cooking for 2-3 minutes per side until they turn pink. Remove from skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, lower the heat slightly and add remaining olive oil and butter. Toss in minced garlic and red pepper flakes, sautéing for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Pour in the chicken broth, lemon juice, and zest. Allow to simmer for 2-3 minutes, letting it reduce slightly.
- Bring back the shrimp and add the drained pasta to the skillet. Toss everything together, mixing in reserved pasta water to reach desired consistency.
- Stir in freshly chopped parsley and mix well. Plate the dish immediately, garnishing with additional parsley and lemon wedges.
