Step 1

Melt butter in sauté pan over medium heat. Sauté the garlic until fragrant, then add shrimp. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until opaque and pink. Remove from pan and set aside.

Step 2

Turn up the heat slightly, add olive oil. Add pepper flakes, cook for 30 seconds. Add in the tomatoes and stir. Cover and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until all of the tomatoes' skins have split. Remove the lid and pop all the tomatoes so their juices form a sauce. Add garlic and herbs, stir. Add can of tomatoes. Simmer, uncovered, until the sauce has reduced and the canned tomatoes have cooked into the fresh ones.

Step 3

Reduce heat to low. Add lemon juice, stir and taste. Add salt and pepper as necessary.

Step 4

Add the shrimp back to the sauce once the pasta is done. Raise the heat to medium-low and bring the sauce to a simmer to ensure the shrimp are warm and the garlic butter is incorporated. Serve over spaghetti or linguini.
