Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place the butter or margarine in 9x13 inch glass baking dish and place in oven until butter melts.

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente. Drain and transfer to a large serving bowl.

Stir the shrimp garlic and lemon juice into the melted butter. Return dish to oven. Bake for 3 minutes. Remove from the oven and mix in parsley; continue baking until shrimp are opaque about 2 minutes longer. Season with salt and pepper.

Spoon the shrimp and butter sauce over the linguini and toss to coat the pasta. Serve immediately.
