Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until al dente. Drain, reserving ¼ cup pasta cooking liquid.

When the pasta is nearly done, pat shrimp dry with paper towels; season with salt. Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet over medium. Cook shrimp until pink but still slightly undercooked, about ⏱️ 1 minute per side. Transfer to a plate.

Add green chiles and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid has evaporated, about ⏱️ 2 minutes. Add lemon juice and cook, stirring often, until combined and mixture is jammy, about ⏱️ 1 minute.
