Lemon Linguine With Basil Pesto Shrimp Recipes

Steps:

• Pesto Directions:
• Put basil leaves and garlic in bowl of a food processor.
• Pulse a few times to combine.
• Add Parmesan cheese and pine nuts; pulse a few more times.
• Scrape mixture into a bowl and whisk in olive oil.
• Add salt and red pepper flakes to taste; stir.
• Lemon Linguine:
• Place shrimp in a non-metal bowl or zipper bag; spoon in half of the pesto to coat. Mix well. Set aside the rest of the pesto for later.
• Place shrimp in the refrigerator to marinate for about 30 minutes. You can also put the shrimp on wooden skewers that have been thoroughly soaked in water.
• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet or grill pan. Add the shrimp and saute just until it turns pink, about 1 or 2 minutes per side.
• Remove shrimp from pan and cover to keep warm. Shrimp will continue to cook for a minute after you remove it from the heat.
• In a large serving bowl, whisk the 1/4 cup of the lemon juice and olive oil until partially emulsified.
• Add the Parmesan and continue whisking until creamy.
• Toss in the lemon zest and season with salt and pepper.
• Adjust the oil-to-lemon ratio by adding more lemon juice, a little at a time, until it is to your taste.
• Add hot pasta to the bowl and toss until well-coated. The heat from the pasta will melt the cheese and help it stick to the linguine.
• Add some cooking water if the pasta seems dry.
• Portion the linguine onto dinner plates; top each with 4 to 6 shrimp.
• Ladle some remaining pesto onto each plate as well.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, about 12 minutes; drain.
• Blend basil, lemon juice, 3 tablespoons olive oil, garlic, and salt in a blender until smooth.
• Heat 2 teaspoons olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir sugar snap peas in hot oil until tender, about 5 minutes. Add shrimp and red pepper; continue to cook until the shrimp are bright pink on the outside and the meat is no longer transparent in the center, about 5 minutes. Stir basil sauce into the shrimp mixture and remove from heat; spoon over spaghetti to serve.

Steps:

• Set a large 1-gallon stock pot of water to a boil and add the kosher salt. Place the linguine in the pot and stir the pot until the water returns to a boil. Cook the pasta until tender, but with a bit of resistance (al dente), about 12 minutes.
• While the pasta cooks, prepare the sauce. Set a 12-inch saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the butter and olive oil to the pan. Once the butter has melted, season the shrimp with 1 tablespoon of the Essence and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and add the shrimp to the pan. Sear the shrimp until pink, about 1 minute, then turn over and cook for another minute. Remove the shrimp from the pan and set aside. Add the onions and saute until softened and lightly caramelized, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic to the pan and saute until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the cream, pesto, remaining tablespoon of Essence, remaining teaspoon of the salt to the pan and bring to a boil. Cook the sauce until the cream is reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Return the shrimp, linguine and the reserved cooking water to the pan and cook, tossing to incorporate for 3 to 5 minutes. Remove pan from the heat and add the parsley and parmesan cheese and toss to blend. Serve immediately.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly.
