Steps

Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Cook fettuccine according to package directions until just under al dente, about 14 minutes. Drain, reserving ½ cup pasta water.
Meanwhile, melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook until softened, 8 to 10 minutes. Add garlic cloves and shrimp. Cook for 1 minute, until shrimp just begins to turn pink. Add white wine and ½ cup reserved pasta water to the pan, then season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cook for 2 minutes. Add pasta to the pan and cook until shrimp is completely cooked, and liquid has reduced a little and coats the pasta in a silky sauce.
Remove from heat and sprinkle with parsley, lemon zest and lemon juice. Serve immediately.
