Instructions
Cook noodles, drain, rinse, and set aside. *Reserve some of your pasta water in case more liquid is needed for your sauce.
Preheat large skillet to medium-high heat with the olive oil. Once the olive oil starts to shimmer, it is ready to add the garlic.
Add minced garlic to the heated skillet and saute for 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant. Add the shrimp and seasoning (thyme, oregano, crushed red peppers, salt & pepper). Stir frequently and cook for approximately 1-2 minutes.
Deglaze the pan with the white wine and bring back up to heat (about 1 minute).
Add the 4 tablespoons of butter, the baby arugula, and chopped parsley, then cook until the leaves of the fresh arugula are just beginning to wilt.
Stir in cooked pasta and serve topped with freshly grated Italian cheese and garnish with more parsley (optional).
