I absolutely love Giada's recipe for Linguine with Shrimp and Lemon Oil. This is a great weeknight meal for me because it is quick to prepare and I almost always have the ingredients on hand. Frozen shrimp, garlic, shallots, lemons, linguine, and olive oil are basic pantry items in most homes. I am a huge fan of arugula and generally keep a small tub of the Earthbound Farms or Olivia's Organics in the fridge.
I follow Giada's recipe except that I leave the lemon zest in the lemon oil instead of straining it out. I omit the lemon zest in the pasta step since I leave it in the lemon oil. Make sure to use a good quality olive oil. I used Frantoia and it was fabulous. Trust me this is delicious!

ReplyDeleteI love this dish - and it is perfect for summer. I like having he zest stay in - good call. And arugula is always at hand. Thank you Earthbound Farms (it only recently has caught on in MN - I had to grow my own!)
