My family loves this simple dish of gluten free Garlic Butter Shrimp with Linguine. Last year my husband was diagnosed with Celiac and we had to change a lot of the brands we’ve used and the ways we eat. However, since we have a few food challenges in our family, we’ve tried to keep meals the same and found replacements for everything – gluten free pastas, breads, sauces, cookies. However, finding the right gluten free pasta brand has been a little tougher. Years ago I had tried to go gluten free (in an attempt to figure out food sensitivities and I couldn’t find a good brand. But now, we feel that the gluten free pastas taste better. We end up using the Barilla Gluten Free or the Tinkyada mostly, but brands like Banza and Ronzoni Gluten Free have also scored high marks from my husband. This recipe is a gluten free version of the recipe my father-in-law makes and I now make it for my family. It’s simple and absolutely scrumptious. I used Tinkyada brown rice linguine for this, but you can use any gluten free brand you want to make this delicious gluten free Garlic Butter Shrimp with Linguine!

Ingredients:

Uncooked (raw) shrimp – 2 lbs
Gluten Free Linguine or spaghetti (if you are not gluten free, regular linguine or spaghetti is fine) – I used Tinkyada’s.
Chopped fresh Italian Parsley (or use dried parsley flakes if you really can’t get any fresh parsley)
Olive oil cooking spray or Olive Oil
Butter or a butter substitute like Earth Balance
2-3 Garlic Cloves (smashed, chopped finely or pressed in a garlic press)

Start boiling water for the pasta. Get your garlic ready by pressing or chopping it.

Chop your parsley finely.

Cook your shrimp. Add some olive oil and two generous tablespoons of butter to your saucepan (I like my stainless steel 11 inch fry pan).

Then add your shrimp and saute it until you see the shrimp turn pink. I like to do this in batches so I don’t crowd my pan.

After your shrimp starts cooking, your pasta water should be boiling, follow the directions on your package.
Drain your pasta and set it on your counter near the stovetop.
Once the shrimp is cooked all the way through, take it out of the buttery sauce.

Add your cooked pasta to the pan, which should still be on a flame and coat it with the buttery sauce.

Then turn the heat off, add your shrimp back to your pan, then add your chopped Italian Parsley on top and mix together. Serve. While this looks very fancy, it’s actually really easy and my family asks for it often. I will serve a salad with it! Enjoy your gluten free Garlic Butter Shrimp with Linguine!
