Awesome super easy Shrimp Pasta!

Tonight I really didn't want to cook a difficult meal. I happened to still have one bag of wild GA shrimp left in the freezer from last fall, and we are getting 20 lbs. of shrimp next week so it needed to be used. So I did a quick search for shrimp pasta recipes that included the ingredients I happened to have around the house. The recipe I found tastes amazing!!! Enjoy!

• salt to taste
• 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
• 1 pound fresh shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 1/4 cup butter

1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add linguine, and cook for 9 to 13 minutes or until al dente; drain.
2. Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat, and saute garlic about 1 minute. Mix in chicken broth, wine, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, and pepper. Reduce heat, and simmer until liquid is reduced by about 1/2.
