In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta 1 minute less than package instructions. Add escarole and cook 1 minute. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water, then drain.
In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add garlic and cook 30 seconds. Add shrimp, season with salt, and cook until opaque throughout, 4 minutes.
