Shrimp Scampi with Pasta (for 2)

1/2 lb. pasta noodles
1/2 lb. shrimp, peeled
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 scallion, finely chopped
2-3 Tbsp. butter
1-2 Tbsp. olive oil
Juice of 1/2 a lemon
1/4-1/2 C. sparkling white grape juice or broth
Salt & pepper
Parsley

1.  Begin boiling water to cook noodles and cook according to directions on the package.
2.  In large skillet heat 1 Tbsp butter with 1 Tbsp olive oil on medium heat.  Saute garlic and scallion for 4-5 minutes or until scallions are translucent.
3.  Add shrimp and season with salt and pepper.  Cook 3-5 minutes until shrimp are pink, remove from pan.
4.  Add sparkling white grape juice or broth, lemon juice and 1-2 Tbsp butter and bring to a boil.  Return shrimp to pan and continue to cook for another minute or two. 
5.  Toss pasta with shrimp and sauce, garnish with parsley and serve immediately.

p.s.  Scampi is meant to be rather buttery so you can increase the amount of butter you use if you would like, I simply chose to decrease the amount a bit.  This dinner is quick and light and perfect for a romantic evening with your sweetheart!
