Ingredients

Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook linguine according to package directions until al dente.
  2. Drain the pasta and toss with a drizzle of olive oil to prevent sticking; set aside.

  5. Add the minced garlic and stir for 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
  6. Sprinkle the flour over the onion and garlic mixture and stir continuously for 1 minute to cook off the raw flour taste.
  7. Slowly whisk in the dry Marsala wine and chicken broth, ensuring the sauce is smooth and lump-free.
  8. Bring the sauce to a gentle boil, stirring constantly, and cook for 2 minutes until slightly thickened.
  9. Reduce heat to medium-low and add the shrimp.
  10. Cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they turn pink and are just opaque.
