Cook the spaghetti according to the package directions.

Pour the oil into a large skillet over medium heat while the spaghetti cooks. Allow the oil to heat for a few minutes.

Allow the garlic to cook for about a minute, stirring occasionally.

Cook for 2 minutes after adding the shrimp. Flip the shrimp with tongs and cook for another 2 minutes.

Remove the cooked shrimp and garlic to a serving plate and set aside.

Drain the pasta and add it to the skillet where you cooked the shrimp. Return the cooked shrimp and garlic to the pasta, along with the lemon juice, salt, and pepper. To combine, toss everything together.

Serve immediately, garnished with chopped parsley.
