  1. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper, then dredge them in flour until evenly coated. Shake off any excess flour.

  • In the same skillet, add the white wine and chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until it has reduced by half.
  • Stir in the lemon juice and parsley, and season the sauce with additional salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add the cooked spaghetti or linguine to the skillet and toss it in the sauce to coat.
  • Add the cooked shrimp back to the skillet and toss to combine. Serve immediately, garnished with additional chopped parsley if desired. Enjoy!
