Cooking Instructions
  1. Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  2. Toss in the shrimp and cook until they turn pink and opaque, about 3-5 minutes.
  3. Add pasta, white wine (or broth), and enough water to cover everything. Stir to combine and bring to a boil.
