Recipe by Susan Spungen The sweet notes in shrimp are pleasantly offset by the zingy flavors of parsley, mint, red pepper flakes, and lemon zest.

Ingredients

1/2 lb. spaghetti (or any other type of pasta) 2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil 1 lb. small shrimp 2 clove finely chopped garlic .13 tsp. red pepper flakes 1/4 c. finely chopped flat-leaf parsley leaves 1/4 c. finely chopped mint leaves 1 tbsp. butter 1 1/2 tsp. finely grated lemon zest Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add spaghetti and cook until al dente, 8 to 10 minutes. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water, then drain spaghetti well. Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add shrimp and cook, stirring often, until pink all over, about 2 minutes. Add garlic and red pepper flakes; cook until shrimp is just cooked through and garlic is fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add parsley, mint, butter, and lemon zest; stir until combined. Add spaghetti and reserved 1/2 cup pasta water to skillet; season to taste with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing constantly, until liquid thickens to form a sauce and spaghetti is hot throughout, about 1 to 2 minutes more. Transfer pasta and shrimp to 4 shallow bowls and serve immediately.
