In a medium bowl, add shrimp and all of the marinade ingredients. Mix well and refrigerate for a minimum of 2 hours but preferably overnight.
Cook the linguini per the instructions.
When the linguini is almost finished cooking, heat a Sauté pan and melt 1/4 stick of the unsalted butter over medium high heat. While the butter is melting drain the linguini and prepare for serving.
Add the uncooked shrimp to the sauté pan. IMPORTANT - do not overcook the shrimp. It will only take a couple of minutes to cook. Use the remaining 1/4 stick of unsalted butter for the shrimp sauté.
Pour the shrimp and the sauté juices over the linguini on a serving dish.
