354 ml chicken or vegetable broth

9 cloves garlic

1 ½ small bunches Italian (flat-leaf) parsley

1 ½ lemons

42 g Parmesan cheese

1.02 kg raw peeled shrimp, fresh or frozen

6 red bell peppers

510 g spaghetti pasta

butter, unsalted

crushed red pepper

Instructions

Fill a large pot halfway with water, cover, and bring to a boil. Uncover, add salt and pasta, and stir for a few seconds. Cook until desired firmness, 8-10 minutes.

If using frozen shrimp, place in a large bowl, cover with cold water, and set aside to thaw. If using fresh shrimp, skip this step.

Wash and dry bell peppers and parsley.

Seed and cut bell peppers into small strips. Shave parsley leaves off the stems; discard the stems and mince the leaves.

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat.

Peel and mince garlic.

Drain shrimp in a colander and rinse under cold water until there are no more ice chunks. Spread out on a clean towel and pat dry.

Add butter to skillet and let it melt. Add shrimp and cook, stirring frequently, until opaque and pink, 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a plate.

Reduce heat to medium and add more butter to skillet. Then add garlic, bell peppers, and crushed red pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until peppers are tender-crisp, 2-3 minutes.

Add broth to skillet and cook until it reduces, 1-2 minutes.

Finely grate ⅓ cup of Parmesan.

Drain pasta in a colander.

Add pasta, shrimp, parsley, and Parmesan to skillet. Pour in remaining broth and drizzle with lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper and toss until well combined.

Serve pasta on a plate or in a bowl and enjoy!
