1

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the linguine and cook for 9 to 13 minutes, or until slightly firm; drain.
2

Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat, and sauté the garlic for about 1 minute. Stir in the chicken broth, wine, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, and pepper. Lower the heat and simmer until the liquid is reduced by about half.
3

Stir the shrimp, butter, parsley, and basil into the saucepan. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until the shrimp is opaque. Add the cooked linguine and cook for 2 more minutes, stirring until well coated.
