Step 1
Boil salted water in a large skillet over high heat. Add pasta and cook until al dente, ~3 minutes. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water before draining.
Step 2
Return skillet to medium-high heat. Add butter and garlic, stirring constantly until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Step 3
Add shrimp and red pepper flakes. Sear without stirring for 60 seconds, then toss and cook until shrimp turn pink, ~90 seconds more.
Step 4
Pour in white wine, scraping any stuck bits from the pan. Simmer for 90 seconds until reduced by half.
Step 5
Return pasta to skillet with lemon juice and 1/4 cup reserved pasta water. Toss to coat, adding more pasta water if needed for a glossy finish.
