Instructions

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, cook the pasta until al dente, then drain it, keeping a little of the cooking water, and keep it warm.
2. Preheat a large frying pan over medium heat, then melt the butter with the oil.
3. Add the minced garlic to the melted butter and cook for about 1 minute.
4. Add the peeled shrimp, toss them in the garlic butter and cook for a few minutes.
5. Add the white wine (or broth) and the juice of 1 lemon (use 2 lemons if not using wine). Season with salt, pepper and smoked paprika.
6. Cook the shrimp for about 5 minutes in total, until they are no longer translucent. Smaller shrimp may need less time.
7. Take the pan off the heat, stir in the chopped parsley, then add the pasta and toss with tongs.
8. Serve with lemon wedges, adding a squeeze of lemon juice just before eating.
