Finely chop half a shallot, peel and mince three garlic cloves, slice two lemon rounds, and chop a quarter cup of fresh parsley.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add peeled and deveined shrimp, season with salt and black pepper, and cook for 2 to 4 minutes until they turn pink. Remove shrimp from the pan and set aside.
In the same skillet, melt three tablespoons of butter gently. Add the chopped shallot, minced garlic, and half a teaspoon of red chili flakes, cooking for 3 to 5 minutes until fragrant and softened.
Pour in half a cup of chardonnay, then add the lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste and simmer briefly.
Meanwhile, cook pasta in plenty of salted water until about 80% done. Reserve some of the pasta cooking water before draining.
Return the shrimp and pasta to the skillet with the sauce. Add half a cup of reserved pasta water and finish cooking the pasta in the sauce until al dente. Stir in the chopped fresh parsley and add a few tablespoons of butter if desired for extra richness.
Once the sauce thickens slightly and the pasta is perfectly cooked, the dish is ready to serve.
Transfer to a large serving bowl, spoon the sauce over the shrimp and pasta, garnish with additional parsley, and enjoy immediately.
