How to make it

  • In your food processor add arugula, spinach, basil and garlic pulse 10 - 15 times to chop, slowly add olive oil to make a fine paste, add toasted pignoli nuts and pulse 3 - 5 more times.
  • Remove from food processor add parmasan and salt and pepper.
  • In a large skillet at high heat, add 1 tsp olive oil add shrimp to the pan (do not over crowd the pan as it will steam your shrimp instead of seering it), cook till pink and flip approximately 2 minutes.

  • In a large pot boil 3 quarts of water, once boiling add a hand full of kosher salt, add linguine and cook to el dente. Strain pasta reserving 1 cup of your pasta water.
  • Add liguine to the shrimp and add a little water if too thick. Just before serving add some of your favorite italian cheese.....add a large glass of merlot and a good slice of semolina bread and you have a great meal!!!!!
