Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta to the boiling water and cook according to the package directions, or until al dente.
While pasta is cooking, heat 2 T. oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shrimp in a single layer. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. After 2 minutes, turn the shrimp over, add the remaining tablespoon oil, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Stir constantly for 1- 2 minutes. Add the lemon zest and white wine to the shrimp. Stir to reduce the wine slightly. Stir in the lemon juice.
Add 1/3 cup of the cooking water into a large serving bowl. Drain the pasta and add to the bowl. Pour the shrimp with the sauce over the pasta. Add the pine nuts and Parmesan and toss to mix and coat. Serve with a drizzle of olive oil and extra red pepper flakes on each serving, if desired.
