- 1 ½ pounds shrimp, large
- 1 ½ tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/3 cup parsley, finely chopped

Instructions
- In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30-60 seconds. Add broth, red pepper flakes and black pepper and bring to a simmer. Allow broth to reduce about half, cooking for 2 minutes or so.
- Add shrimp and sauté until opaque and pink, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice and parsley. Toss with prepared Heart of Palm noodles.
For the Heart of Palm Noodles: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté the noodles, stirring gently for even cooking, about 2 minutes for “al dente”. Toss with the shrimp scampi and serve immediately - enjoy!
