Ingredients
- 1 lb Shrimp peeled, deveined & tails removed
- Salt/Pepper to taste
- 2 tbs Olive Oil
- 2 Garlic Cloves minced
- 2 tbs Dried Minced Onion
- 1.5 c White Wine I used Chardonnay
- The Juice of 1 Lemon
- 1 tsp Italian Seasoning
- 1/2 Stick Butter softened
- 2 tbs Fresh Chopped Parsley
- 12 oz Bucatini Pasta cooked (or pasta of choice)
Instructions
- Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil.
- Season shrimp with salt & pepper. Toss into skillet and cook about 2 minutes, until no longer translucent. Remove shrimp and set aside.
- Add garlic and minced onion. Sauté for 1 minute. You do not want the garlic to brown.
- Add wine to the skillet and whisk to deglaze pan. Allow the wine to cook and reduce by half. This will take 4-5 minutes.
- Add lemon juice, Italian seasoning and butter. Whisk to incorporate all ingredients together. Lower temperature on stove top to medium low to prevent the butter from separating. Add fresh chopped parsley.
- Return shrimp to sauce and allow to simmer for 1 minute.
