Shrimp, lemon pepper linguini

This is so comforting, light and tangy with the lemony wine /shrimp mixture.

Serves 4

1 8oz package linguini
1 tbsp olive oil
6 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/4 cup white wine
1 lemon, juiced
1/2 tsp lemon zest
salt to taste
2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1lb fresh shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/4 cup butter
3 tbsp chopped fresh Italian parsley
1 tbsp chopped fresh basil

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to the boil. Add the linguini, and cook for 9 to 13 minutes or until al dente; drain

Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat and saute garlic about 1 minute. Mix in the chicken broth, wine, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt and pepper. Reduce heat and simmer until liquid is reduced by 1/2.

Mix the shrimp, butter, parsley and basil into the saucepan.
Cook 2 to 3 minutes, until the shrimp is opaque. Stir in the cooked linguini, and continue cooking 2 minutes, until well coated.
