It’s the summertime and I want to be outside as much as possible, meaning I want to be in the kitchen as little as possible! Enter lemon spaghetti with shrimp. It’s one of my go-to meals because it takes less than 30 minutes to prepare. Plus, I always have shrimp in the freezer. My family loves this dish and I make it a couple of times a month.
I first saw this recipe on Everyday Italian with Giada de Laurentiis on the Food Network. I must have talked about the show a lot because that Mother’s Day, I received Giada’s Everyday Italian cookbook.
A few months later, we were visiting my sister-in-law and I made lemon spaghetti for dinner when company was coming. Everybody loved it, down to the toddler who ate only the lemon spaghetti! It’s still a favorite at my sister-in-law’s house.
The recipe is so easy that you don’t really need the book. I play around with the measurements sometimes and it still tastes great every time.
