Shrimp Scampi with Spaghetti

The intense buttery and herbal flavors are what makes this recipe so unique. We cooked the shrimp in butter for that extra creamy touch and added a mix of solid herbs to complement the seafood. The simple yet flavorful sauce is the secret trick for this pasta dish. Also, the shrimp is cooked separately and then combined with the sauce, allowing them to boil to perfection.
