Shrimp Scampi Pasta Recipe:
Tossing shrimp scampi with pasta is our favorite way to serve scampi. The lemon butter scampi sauce is so fresh, vibrant and flavorful and goes so well with pasta.
Watch the video recipe below to see just how easy it is. You’ll make this shrimp scampi pasta again and again!
What is the Best Shrimp for Scampi?
Look for raw shrimp (preferably wild caught) that are large 21-30 count. Slightly larger or smaller will still work but you will have to increase or decrease cooking time accordingly as shrimp can easily overcook.
Save prep time by purchasing shrimp that are already peeled and deveined. Tail on or tail off is based on preference. It’s easier to eat without the tails but the presentation is nicer with tails on.
Can I Substitute Cooked Shrimp?
Cooking raw shrimp will give you the best flavor as it takes on the garlic flavors from the pan and will add flavor to the sauce, which is why we highly recommend raw shrimp.
If you have cooked shrimp on hand, be sure to fully thaw and thoroughly pat dry with paper towels. Add them to the pan just long enough to heat through. If you re-cook the shrimp, they will end up overcooked and rubbery.
How to Trim Asparagus:
Asparagus ends are fibrous and must be removed before cooking. The fastest way is by snapping off the ends and wherever they snap is where the fibrous part ends. You can also use a vegetable peeler to remove fibrous ends.
How to Make Shrimp Scampi Pasta:
With the exception of the pasta, the shrimp and scampi sauce come together in one pan. This recipe comes together fast so have all of your ingredients prepped and ready before you fire up the stove.
1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook pasta until al-dente.
2. Place a large, deep pan over medium/high heat with 1 Tbsp olive oil and 1 Tbsp butter. Add asparagus, season with 1/4 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp pepper and cook uncovered for 5 minutes until crisp tender, stirring occasionally. Transfer asparagus to a plate.
3. In the same hot pant, add 2 Tbsp oil and 2 Tbsp butter. Once the butter melts, add garlic and sautee 1 minute. Add shrimp in a single layer, season with 1 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper and saute until shrimp are pink and opaque (2 min per side). Do not overcook.
4. Add 1/4 cup lemon juice, 1/3 cup parsley, 1 Tbsp lemon zest and stir to combine. Turn off heat, return pasta and asparagus to the pan and toss to combine. Serve with grated parmesan.
This shrimp scampi pasta with asparagus is so juicy and flavorful. Every noodle is coated with amazing fresh flavor.

Made your recipe tonight and the family LOVED it! I picked a Meyer lemon from my back deck, used my homemade pasta and it was perfect! Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe!!!
I’m so happy to hear that! Thank you for sharing your great review, Cheryl!
I tried the shrimp scampi with asparagus pasta with variations and it’s still good. Thank you for sharing. I will definitely do this again next time.
You’re welcome! I’m so happy you enjoyed it
I would Love to try a recipe like this because I love garlic, asparagus and of course shrimp, but I am allergic to anything citrus. Any suggestions on what I could substitute for the lemon?
Hi Janie, here is what one of our readers tried without lemon, “I made this last night…. it was amazing…. I will never cook asparagus any other way….. I wasn’t sure how to replace the lemon, so I added a little more butter … and it was perfect …. a great dish for company. So happy I found your site.” I hope that helps!
Thanks Natasha! It looks like now I have a couple of ways to try this, extra butter or (&) white wine. I will definitely give this a try in the next couple of days and let you know how it goes.
I look forward to your feedback Janie!
Try white wine.
I love the results but the “takes less than 30 minutes” claim is a bit disingenuous because it does not include any prep time. Yes, it takes less than 30 minutes to stir everything together once the asparagus is cleaned and chopped, the lemons are zested and juiced, the shrimp is shelled and cleaned, the garlic is peeled and minced, and the parsley is cleaned and chopped. I’ve made this twice now and with the added prep time I have not made it in less than an hour and 15 minutes, all steps included. So we enjoy the scampi very much but for us it is a weekend meal when we have the time it takes to prep AND cook it. (I understand that the prep can be done ahead of time. But that is still time that has to be spent, whether it’s at the same time as cooking or beforehand. This is not a “less than 30 min.” meal.) The only mention of prep comes in the comment, “This recipe comes together fast so have all of your ingredients prepped and ready before you fire up the stove.” Well, yes. Five stars for the meal itself, 4 stars for the misdirection on the time it actually takes to make it.
I’m so glad you love the recipe! I have found that the right shrimp can make all the difference in prep time as fully shell-on shrimp can be a pain to peel and devein. I try to find the ones that are peeled and deveined with just their tails on so I have to do minimal to no work in preparing the shrimp.
We loved this recipe! Thank you!!!
You’re welcome, Nina! I’m so happy you enjoyed it!
Great dish and easy to make,,will try cilantro next time and a bit of chopped red peppers
I’m so happy you enjoyed that, Larry!
We loved this recipe!
Next time I would prepare a little extra garlic butter/oil sauce to add at the end. Added a few red pepper flakes, for some added zip!
I’m so happy to hear that! Thank you for sharing your great review!
One of our favorite Friday night dinners 🙂 thanks for the recipe!
You’re welcome! I’m so happy you enjoyed it
This was delicious! Thanks for the recipe! This one is a keeper!
I’m so happy to hear that Robin, sounds like you found a new favorite!
This was excellent, I made it for dinner and loved every bite
I’m so happy you enjoyed that, Geri!
This dish is so full of flavor and easy to make (if you remember to defrost the shrimp lol). I made it yesterday and it’s on the menu again this week! I like that’s it’s versatile, I added mushrooms and I’m sure you could add any other veggies (but keep the zucchini!). It’s just delicious! Thanks so much Natasha!
I’m so happy to hear that, Emily! It sounds like you have a new family favorite!.
I have made this many times. One of my favorite shrimp dishes. Today, realized I didn’t have lemons or white wine, to use as a substitute for lemons, is used a small amount of Vermouth.
I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
I just thought I’d tell you…. Shrimp Scampi Pasta with Asparagus is without a doubt my favorite recipe from your kitchen. It came out so perfect …. Love your site/blog/recipes…. thank you…
Awww that’s the best! Thank you so much for sharing that with me :). I’m all smiles!
does it matter what kind of butter? Such as unsalted, salted, sweet cream?
Hi Lani, I always use unsalted butter in all of my recipes but you can sub with salted butter here if that is what you have on hand and just be sure to season to taste. I hope you love the shrimp scampi pasta!
This is one of our go-to dinners. We get a big bag of shrimp at Costco so we always have it on hand. My family loves this dish,
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for the wonderful review!
Just made this recipe for the second time. It was delicious!!
Used Spaghetti squash instead of regular pasta! Perfect for those on low carb diets!
I’m so happy you enjoyed that Gail!!
This recipe is fantastic, everyone in my family enjoyed it and it was very easy to make.
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for the wonderful review!
I made this for dinner tonight. It is superb. Taste is light and flavorful. It explodes with excitement on the palate. It was quick and easy to make, though, I prepared the shrimp hours earlier. I will make this dish again.
Thank you Demetrice! I’m so inspired reading your review. 🙂
That looks good. I’m 15 and this will be the first meal I’m going to make without the help of my mom. Can’t wait to try it. What drink do you think is a good suggestion to drink with this meal? And by the way my name is Gabi!
Hi Gabi!! That is so great! I hope you love this recipe! We love our homemade juice with dinner. We have a few awesome drinks on our blog like these here.
can you suggest a wine and or bread or rolls…this will be my first dinner in my new home !
Hi Marie, we don’t drink so I probably wouldn’t be helpful with a wine suggestion, but as for bread, a crusty French bread would be nice on the side.
Delicious. Will be making again!
I’m so happy to hear that, Cindy!
I made this for me and my husband and we both liked it. Just wondering what other veggies you can add, I was thinking red bell pepper and zucchini. What else sounds good? Tia
HI Dawn! Those sounds like great options! Green beans or peas may work also!
Never add olive oil to the water when you are making something other than scampi with pasta. It will not allow the sauce or gravy to stick to the pasta.
I never thought of adding the Asparagus.
Thank you Rose! We appreciate your feedback!
I followed the recipe exactly. I was soooooo delicious and so easy to make! My husband loved it too. Will definitely add it to my recipe kardex.
Hi Angelina! That’s so great! Thank you for sharing this wonderful review!
What other vegetable would be good here? I detest asparagus.
Hi Andrew, several of our readers have reported trying this with Broccoli and green beans and loving it. 🙂
Broccoli florets?
This was amazing and so simple to make. My guys loved it. Next time I’ll get a picture before they eat it all. 😊
I’m so happy you enjoyed that Nancy!
This is one of my favorite things to make. Easy and satisfying. Simply love it.
Hi Pamela! I’m so happy you found a favorite! Thank you for sharing that with me.
This may be WAY after the fact, but because I’m trying to cut carbs, I did this recipe with leftover quinoa. I had about 3-4 cups of leftover quinoa and threw that in there instead of the spaghetti. Was STILL delicious.
I’m so happy it worked out for you Ben! Thank you for sharing that with us!
Me encantan tus recetas, podrás añadir algunas de Salmón, por favor
Thank you so much Gloria!
do you have a cook book with all of your yummy recipes?
Hi Carolyn! Not yet but stay tuned! 🙂
FABULOUS recipe!! Delicious & light!! A real hit in our home! 🙂
I’m so happy you all enjoyed that! Sounds like you found a new family favorite Terri!
I especially love that this has no heavy, creamy sauce! Can’t wait to make this! Thanks
You’re so welcome Connie!
That looks so good! I have everything to make that but the parm, of course. I bet that would be awesome with some mushrooms sauteed with the asparagus and a bit of bacon bits tossed in at the end. Bacon and shrimp? Yes please!
That sounds so good Ginny! Great ideas! 🙂
I made this and it was absolutely great, and so easy to make….. It popped up on my facebook today which is funny, because I am already making this for din din tonight.
Thank you for the awesome review, Nancy! How funny is that! I love it!
I made this dish. Im not a cook but this came out GREAT! I even gave some to my friends and family. They LOVED it. I cant wait to make it for my boyfriend
Thank you for sharing this with your friends Laura! What a great review! 🙂
Added scallops to this great dish, tripled it and served it at our family reunion at the Jersey shore. Everyone loved it. Thank you.
PS: Cooked the scallops separately.
Thank you for the great review, Marion! I’m so happy you enjoyed that!
5 stars from hubby! Had to double the recipe to use a 2 lb. bag of jumbo Argentenian red shrimp already thawed. It was OMG good!! Thank you Natasha!!!
You’re welcome! I’m so happy you both enjoyed it, Carol.
Made this about a week ago,delicious! Hubby and I both loved it. Making it again tonight.❤️
Sounds like you guys found a new favorite!
Made this for dinner tonite.. was really good ! will definitely make it again….
I’m so glad you enjoyed it, Teresa!
It was good, but I only put in half of the lemon juice called for and even then it was quite lemony. Also, I cooked onions in with the asparagus for more flavor. As an aside, I have to agree with whoever commented on putting oil in the pasta water. Just salt. My mom used to add oil so I used to as well until I learned it wasn’t good practice. You can’t argue with Lidia…”Do not put oil in the pot: As Lidia Bastianich has said, “Do not — I repeat, do not — add oil to your pasta cooking water! And that’s an order!” Olive oil is said to prevent the pot from boiling over and prevent the pasta from sticking together. But, the general consensus is that it does more harm than good.
I’m so happy you enjoyed that. Thank you for sharing that with us!
Agreed!!! As long as you have a rolling boil there is no need for oil in the pasta water, and stir it….stirring and a rolling boil, the pasta will not stick. Sea Salt only should go in your water…and properly seasoned pasta water should taste like the sea! To prevent pot from boiling over, put a wooden spoon across the pot – apparently something in a wooden spoon helps with that.
And just who is Lidia Bastianich? the whizz of pasta cooking? I always put oil in the pasta water, unless it’s spaghetti bolognese.
Natasha, your recipes are magnificent!
I am Italian and I was taught my Grandmother that you never put even olive oil in pasta water, no matter what! The recipe was excellent otherwise. I substituted dry white Vermouth for most of the lemon.
Thank you for sharing that with me!
Just how can I print this recipe on one page
Hi Sybil! The print friendly recipe is at the bottom of each post. Once you scroll there, click on the print icon in that recipe card which will open a print screen, then you would need to click file —> print. I hope that helps!
I’ve made this a few times now. We are never disappointed. Love it! In fact my sister in law has requested this for her birthday dinner tomorrow. I’m looking forward to making it for her again. Thank you for sharing with us.
That’s so great! It sounds like you have a new family favorite!
Would this work with scallops, we don’t care for shrimp.
I Joanne! I haven’t tried it with scallops myself, but some of our readers have mentioned substituting them for shrimp. Enjoy!
I made this for the first time tonight…it was absolutely wonderful! I cannot wait to see more recipes💜
I’m so inspired reading this. Thank you, Sandi!
so I’m making your Shrimp Scampi pasta this week and tonight my husband tells me…. no more lemon or lime meals….. he doesn’t like them…. so help…. I’m sure the that 1/4 of lemon juice is adding moisture… what can I substitute… more butter? or what??? thanks so.
HI Nancy, you can add half of the lemon juice and then splash in some of the pasta cooking water to add a little more moisture if desired 🙂
I made this last night…. it was amazing…. I will never cook asparagus any other way….. I wasn’t sure how to replace the lemon, so I added a little more butter … and it was perfect …. a great dish for company. So happy I found your site.
I’m so happy you discovered our blog, Nancy. 🙂 Thank you for the wonderful review!
You could substitute white wine for the lemon juice but make sure you let it come to a boil. If you don’t let the wine come to a boil it doesn’t take quite right.
white wine would be nice!
Can you add scallops th he recipe without changing anything else?
Hi Marion, if you wanted to do scallops, I would sear them first before the shrimp, otherwise, you would be crowding the pan which would cause the shrimp and scallops to juice out and become rubbery. I hope you love the recipe!
Very good! I live in AZ so its hard to want to cook a hot meal as the outside temps heat up! So this was a perfect solution as no oven was needed and it was basically a one pot deal
I added sautéed mushrooms after the asparagus and it made for a heartier dish.
Reserve extra lemon slices and lemon zest for freshness during presentation
I will totally make this dish again!
Thanks Nat!
You’re welcome! I’m glad you enjoy the recipe so much. Thanks for sharing your fantastic review with other readers!
It turned out wonderfully. Really good. I am adding this to mt list of good quick meals.
Yay, I’m glad to hear the recipe made it to your favorites list! Thanks for sharing your excellent review Karen!
I made this tonight and it was delicious. Quick and easy recipe. My husband and I both enjoyed it. I doubled the recipe and used spaghetti squash in place of the noodles. I will make this again. Thanks.
You’re welcome Kecia! I’m glad you both love the recipe. Thanks for sharing your great review!
OOh! great suggestion for spag squash as bikini season is here!
Just made this exactly following the recipe. It was superb and easy to make. Wonderful and refreshing pasta dish to have on a warm summer day. I had a side of caprese salad.
I’m glad to hear the recipe is an absolute success! Thanks for sharing your excellent review Yuri!
I think cilantro in lieu of parsley really pops with the lemon and zest.
Either way works great!
Great suggestion Phil, thanks for sharing!
Great recipe! Thank you! Love the taste and flavours…no changes and very easy to make…no leftovers!
You’re welcome, I’m glad to hear the recipe is an absolute success. Thanks for sharing your excellent review Marija!
Made this dish twice now …. absolutely delicious
I’m happy to hear that Tony, thanks for sharing!
This recipe is UNREAL good! Made it twice in the last week! The second time, I substituted riced cauliflower for the pasta, just to make it lower calorie/lower carb. I can’t wait for leftovers tonight!! Recipe is perfect and needs no alterations.
I’m glad you love the recipe Kimberly! What a great suggestion, I will try that myself. Thanks for sharing your fantastic review with other readers!
This is excellent! Making for the 2nd time tonight! I substitute minced onion for garlic as we are not fans of garlic! It is very delicious. Thanks for the recipe!
You’re welcome Sheila! I’m glad to hear how much you enjoy the recipe. Thanks for sharing your fantastic review!
Hi Natasha,
How would you suggest doubling the recipe? I tried doubling everything (besides the asparagus and the shrimp), but the result was super lemony. Was wondering if you had any suggestions?
Hi Mike, I do think doubling the lemon juice without doubling everything would be a little overwhelming with lemon juice. Since you are adding the lemon juice at the end, you might just add it to taste before serving. I hope that helps!
If I were doubling I would use pasta cooking liquid for the second ⅓ cup of liquid.
I make this dish often but differ somewhat…using Fettuccine instead of spaghetti…..love this easy and delicious dish,,.
So happy you enjoyed this, Barbara!
This is so easy and so good!! My 7 years old daughter loves this meal, too! Love it!!!
I’m happy to hear you both love the recipe! Thanks for sharing your great review Keiko!
Used shelled edamame and worked out great.
Yum, that sounds delicious! Thanks for sharing your review with other readers Amy!
I made this tonight. We loved it!! I used linguine. Definitely making it on the regular
I’m happy to hear that Cindy, thanks for sharing! 🙂
Made this last night with double the shrimp and just one lemon. Next time I’ll use two lemons, but it was FABULOUS. My kids devoured it, asked for more and asked if I can make it tonight too. Even my picky mother (who has taste issues due to Alzheimer’s) ate it all! Definitely putting on the must make rotation!
Awesome! I’m glad to hear the whole family enjoys the recipe! Thanks for sharing your wonderful review Heather!
Don’t double the lemons! I tried this one time because I was doubling the noodles. It made everything way too lemony.
I’ve made this twice because my picky eater daughter loves it. Do you have nutrition information for this recipe?
I’m happy to hear that! We are working on adding nutrition labels and metric measurements on all of our recipes. It’s a slow process since it is one recipe at a time. Until all of the recipes are updated, check out this nutrition analyzer – you can plug in the ingredients from any recipe, select the serving size and it will give you nutritional info, calories, etc. I hope that is helpful to you!
I just made this recipe tonight, it was phenomenal! I love your website, a lot of simple and good recipes!!

I made this for the second time tonight for dinner. It is soooo good! My family and friends loved it too! I wouldn’t change a thing.
I’m glad the recipe is a HIT! Thanks for sharing your great review Diane!
do you happen to have a breakdown of the calories, etc?
Due to time constraints, I don’t typically include nutritional info, but check out this nutrition analyzer – you can plug in the ingredients from any recipe, select the serving size and it will give you nutritional info, calories, etc. I hope that is helpful to you Sheryl!
I have made this recipe and it is an exceptionally good recipe. If you are worried about calories you are likely familiar with how to calculate them yourself, serving 4 people. It is a well balanced meal and consuming it will not affect your health in any negative manner. Just make it and enjoy it. If you are worried ’bout it having too many calories, just eat a smaller portion and that will take care of your worries. Natasha did offer you a site to check out the calories.
I’m sorry, you lost me when you needlessly put oil in the pasta water. That does nothing but coat the pasta which defeats the whole purpose of salting the water.
Otherwise, the recipe looks pretty decent and I’ll probably give it a try and hopefully tack on another star.
Best thing I have ever cooked ❤️
Awesome, I’m glad to hear how much you love the recipe. Thanks for sharing Juliann!

Hi Natasha , I love this recipe and made this pasta several times but this time I have only cooked shrimp .. will it work ?and how to make it ?
Angela, I try to use raw in order to avoid overcooking but one of my readers wrote the following: “…I also used frozen cooked shrimp (just thawed it and drained the water then patted with paper towels).”
One of outr favorites! It’s a keeper. Thanks Natasha 😊

Made this for dinner and the family loved it. Very light and fresh tasting. Will definitely make again!
I’m glad to hear your family enjoys the recipe as much as mine does! Thanks for sharing your fantastic review Kathy!
I attempted to make this substituting chicken for shrimp because Hubby has a shrimp allergy. The taste was ok but it was definitely missing shrimp! Lol No fault of the recipe but next time I think I would try a little chicken boullion or chicken better than broth. And I think next time I will half the recipe and make my half with shrimp! 😁 All in all this is a great recipe and quite easy to throw together.
Hi Tammy! You might try seasoning the chicken more if using – I would try seasoning with garlic salt and maybe some lemon pepper. But I agree though, it’s hard to beat shrimp! 😉
Tammy, if you do this with the chicken, try making a sauce incorporating in a ladle of the cooked pasta water, a cup of heavy whipping cream, and 1/2 cup of parmesan cheese to the lemon juice mixture. Taste and make any adjustments to sauce. Too lemony, add more cream. Salt to taste. Then add back in chicken and pasta noodles.
Tried this today. Awesome. Usually when I try something new if I don’t have all of the ingredients I substitute but this time I went right by the recipe. I definitely will do this again. Thank you.
You’re welcome Gail! I’m glad you enjoy the recipe! Thanks for sharing your great review!
This recipe is awesome and very tasty. I used some white wine along with lemon juice. Very easy
