Directions

Mealthy Tip

Swap out the artichoke for any other vegetable you prefer or is in season. Asparagus, broccoli, olives, or zucchini would work well in place of the artichoke hearts. You can even use chicken instead of shrimp. Top the finished pasta with finely chopped fresh chives instead of the parsley. Customizing recipes is the joy of cooking at home!

Garlicky lemon shrimp and pasta go together like peanut butter and jelly! This recipe has the right amount of flavor and spice. It's also light and simple, a perfect weeknight meal. I added extra shrimp and cheese! Great dish!

Laura Griffin says:

I love shrimp scampi! This recipe is so good, it should be on a restaurant menu! I added pine nuts for some extra crunch. Overall, delicious, classic dish and the sauce is superb.

Alexandra Cabassa says:

Super easy! Delicious and filling without being too heavy! I'm obsessed with this!

Melissa Hunter says:

I made this dish using jarred marinated artichoke hearts so I only used half the amount in the recipe. When they're marinated they're a little saltier than in the can. I also tossed in a little spinach to add some green to this pasta. Definitely going to make this again, next time I will use canned artichokes.
