Ingredients

• 12 oz. penne
• 3 tbsp. butter, divided
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 lb. raw medium or large shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 2 tbsp. freshly chopped parsley, plus more for garnish
• Kosher salt
• 2 tbsp. all-purpose flour

1. Preheat oven to 350°. In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook penne according to package directions until al dente. Drain.
