Instructions
Peel and devein shrimp (if you haven’t purchased already prepared shrimp). Remove the tails.
In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Once the water has come to a boil, add salt.
Add the pasta to the boiling water, stirring with a long wooden spoon to prevent the pasta from sticking together.
Cook the pasta, uncovered, according to package directions (usually 7-10 minutes).
In the meantime, heat the olive oil in a skillet, until hot.
In a small bowl combine the garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. Sprinkle the seasoning over the shrimp.
Cook shrimp for 1-2 minutes in multiple batches if necessary (avoid overcrowding so as to not loose heat).
Flip the shrimp and cover with a lid. Cook an additional 2-3 minutes, or until cooked through.
Remove the shrimp from the skillet and add the butter, minced garlic, oregano, and Parmesan.
Drain the pasta and add to the skillet with the butter and garlic, stirring to combine.
Top with the garlic shrimp and parsley (if desired).
