Shrimp Scampi Bake

1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
8 oz linguine or spaghetti
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/4 cup chicken broth
1/4 cup lemon juice (about 2 lemons)
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
Salt and black pepper, to taste
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
Lemon wedges, for garnish

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook Pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the linguine or spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Prepare Shrimp Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the minced garlic, dry white wine, chicken broth, lemon juice, melted butter, olive oil, red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and black pepper. Add the shrimp and toss to coat thoroughly.

Assemble the Dish: In a large baking dish, spread the cooked pasta evenly. Pour the shrimp mixture over the pasta, ensuring the shrimp are distributed evenly.

Topping: In a small bowl, mix the grated Parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the shrimp and pasta.

Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and opaque, and the breadcrumb topping is golden brown.

Garnish and Serve: Remove the dish from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley. Serve the Shrimp Scampi Bake hot, with lemon wedges on the side for extra zest.
