Equipment

large pot for spaghetti (if not option for the veggie version)
large frying pan

Ingredients

1 pound shrimp defrosted, I like Butcher Box
1 cup ghee
1/2 tsp sea salt
3 whole lemons juiced
1/2 cup bone broth
10 cloves garlic minced
1/2 tsp black pepper OMIT FOR AIP
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes OMIT FOR AIP
1 pound pasta I love Jovial's cassava noodles. See notes below for AIP and keto noodles

For the veggie pasta option:

1 tsp ghee for cooking the noodles

Instructions

If you are using pasta noodles and not veggies, follow cooking instructions on the box and cook accordingly. If you are cooking fresh veggie noodles, add ghee to a frying pan and sauté veggie noodles for 5 minutes.
While the pasta is cooking, add the ghee, garlic, salt, pepper& red pepper (omit for AIP) to the stovetop on medium heat for 1 minute. After the one minute is up, add the shrimp and cook for 2 minutes, flip the shrimp and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Once the total of 4 minutes is up add the lemon and bone broth to the pan and cook for 1 additional minute. Pour the sauce and the shrimp over the noodles. Garnish with fresh parsley.

Notes

If you are doing the AIP diet, Jovial's cassava noodles will work. If you are doing the keto diet or doing AIP and cannot find Jovial's noodles where you are located, use zucchini noodles. It is best to use fresh but frozen will also work.
