Tips for Making Garlic and Oil Linguine Cooking Methods

Use fresh shrimp if possible
Don't burn the garlic
For meat lovers, add cooked chicken, steak, pork or lamb
Cook any kind of pasta you like or rice for a side dish
For creamy sauce, add 1/4 cup of heavy cream at the end with a few tablespoons of Parmesan Reggiano.
Outdoor grilling: oil spray a cast-iron skillet until the shrimp is pink, and the garlic simmers on low for around 2 minutes until the broth evaporates a little. Add the rest of the butter until it melts, and serve
Air fryer: Place in an ovenproof casserole dish at 425 degrees. Oil a baking dish, and cook everything together for 4 to 5 minutes or until the shrimp turns pink
Baked: make the sauce first, then bake the shrimp in a greased casserole set in a preheated oven at 400 degrees for 7 to 8 minutes or until the shrimp is pink
