Step-by-Step Method: Knorr Lemon Garlic Shrimp Linguine:

Follow these simple steps to create your Knorr Lemon Garlic Shrimp Linguine:

1. Cook Pasta: Boil the linguine pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain well and set aside, reserving a little pasta water if needed.
2. Prepare Shrimp: Season the peeled and deveined shrimp with salt and black pepper.
3. Cook Shrimp: In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned shrimp and cook for 1-2 minutes per side until pink and opaque. Remove shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
4. Sauté Garlic: Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter to the same skillet. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
5. Make Stock: Prepare your Knorr chicken stock by dissolving 1 Knorr Chicken Stock Pot in ½ cup of boiled water.
6. Deglaze & Build Sauce: Pour the prepared chicken stock and white wine (if using) into the skillet. Scrape the bottom to lift any flavourful bits. Stir in the lemon zest, lemon juice, and crushed red pepper flakes (if using).
7. Combine & Heat: Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet. Toss gently in the lemon garlic butter sauce and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.
8. Add Pasta: Add the cooked linguine to the skillet. Toss everything together until the pasta and shrimp are well coated in the sauce.
9. Adjust & Finish: Season with salt and black pepper to taste. If the sauce seems too thick, add a splash of chicken broth or reserved pasta water to reach your desired consistency. Stir in the chopped fresh parsley.
10. Serve: Serve the Lemon Garlic Shrimp Linguine hot, generously garnished with grated Parmesan cheese.
