Lemon Butter sauce with Shrimp

As an Italian, who grew up eating spaghetti and meatballs every Sunday, I almost always have to satisfy my weekly craving of “macaroni”. However, I always look for ways to make pasta with something different to avoid the same old meal. This week, I created a shrimp and pasta dish, with a lemon butter sauce. The lemon butter sauce is a really easy and can be paired with many things such as chicken or salmon. So think of this recipe as a 2 for 1.

Lemon Butter Sauce
1 cup dry white wine
3 lemons
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon salt
3 turns freshly ground black pepper
1 dash Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 stick
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh basil

Directions:
Combine the wine, lemons, garlic, and basil and cook for 3 minutes. Add in the white wine and stir in the salt, pepper, Worcestershire until the mixture somewhat syrupy, for about 3 minutes. Stir in the cream and cook for 1 minute. Over low heat, whisk in the butter a few pats at a time. When all of the butter has been melted, add in the shrimp. Once shrimp is cooked, serve immediately over pasta.
