  2. 2 Once the pasta is cooked, drain but reserve about 1/2 cup of the hot cooking water. Wipe out the pan and heat up some olive oil in it.
  3. 3 Add the garlic first and cook for half a minute, then the shrimp (season them with a bit of Kosher salt), and red pepper flakes and salt and pepper to flavor. Add the lemon juice. Cook for about 3 minutes or until the shrimp is just about done.
  4. 4 Add the pasta back to the pan along with the zest, arugula, and 1/2 cup hot cooking liquid. Stir it all together gently so a sauce forms over the noodles and serve.
