# How to Make It:
01 - Fill a large pot with salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Add linguine or spaghetti and cook until al dente according to package directions. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water, then drain in a colander.
02 - Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Arrange shrimp in a single layer, season with salt and pepper, and cook 1–2 minutes per side until just pink. Transfer shrimp to a bowl and set aside.
03 - In the same skillet, add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Sauté the diced shallot and minced garlic for 1–2 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant but not browned.
04 - Pour in the dry white wine; simmer for 2 minutes, scraping any browned bits from the pan. Stir in unsalted butter, lemon zest, and red pepper flakes if using.
05 - Add spinach leaves to the skillet and cook for 1–2 minutes until just wilted.
06 - Return cooked shrimp to the skillet. Add drained pasta, fresh parsley, basil, dill, lemon juice, and a splash of reserved pasta water. Toss over low heat until all ingredients are evenly combined and warmed through. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper.
07 - Transfer to serving plates and top with grated Parmesan cheese and lemon wedges as desired. Serve immediately.
