    Title: Shrimp, Lemon & Spinach Linguini
    Categories: Seafood, Vegetables, Citrus, Pasta, Cheese
    Yield: 4 Servings

    8 oz Linguine pasta
    Salt
    3 tb Olive oil
    1 lg Whole lemon; quartered long
    - way, thin sliced, seeded
    1/2 c Sliced shallots
    1 tb Minced garlic
    1 lb Peeled, deveined U-30 shrimp
    5 oz Baby spinach leaves
    1/4 c Fresh grated Parmesan cheese
    Fresh ground black pepper

    Heat water for the pasta: Heat a large pot of salted water
    (2 quarts of water, 1 Tbsp salt) for the pasta.

    BROWN THE LEMON SLICES: While the pasta water is heating,
    cook the lemon slices. Heat 2 Tbsp olive oil in a large
    sauté pan on medium high heat. Add the thinly sliced
    lemons to the pan and cook until browned and softened, 7
    to 8 minutes. Remove from pan, set aside to cool. Once the
    lemon slices are cool, mince them.

    START COOKING THE LINGUINE: Once the pasta water is
    boiling, add the linguine pasta to cook.

    SAUTÉ SHALLOTS AND GARLIC: Add 1 Tbsp olive oil back to
    the pan you had used to cook the lemons. Heat on medium
    high heat. Add the sliced shallots. Cook until softened
    and lightly browned, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic
    and cook a minute more.

    COOK THE SHRIMP: Add the shrimp to the shallots and garlic
    and cook until pink on one side, then toss them to cook on
    the other side, about 2 minutes for each side.

    ADD THE SPINACH, LEMON, SOME PASTA WATER: Add the spinach
    and lemon to the pan and toss to wilt the spinach. Add
    about 1/2 cup pasta water to the pan.

    DRAIN PASTA, TOSS WITH SHRIMP AND SPINACH: When the pasta
    is done, strain it and add it to the pan with the shrimp
    (if you have room, otherwise put everything in a separate
    bowl), toss to coat. Add salt and pepper to taste.

    Serve immediately. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese to
    serve.

    Yield: Serves 4

    Title: Lemon-Garlic Linguine
    Categories: Pasta, Citrus, Herbs
    Yield: 4 servings

    Salt
    1 lb Linguine
    8 tb Unsalted butter
    3 cl Garlic; peeled
    1 lg Lemon
    Black pepper
    Grated Parmesan, crushed red
    - pepper and/or parsley; for
    - garnish (opt)

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the
    linguine and cook until al dente. Reserve 2 cups pasta
    water, then strain the noodles.

    Dry the pot, then return to low heat and add the butter.
    While the butter melts, grate the garlic over the
    butter. Stir until the garlic is fragrant, 1 to 2
    minutes. Finely grate the zest of the lemon into the pot
    to taste, and add a few grinds of black pepper. When the
    pepper is sizzling, add 1 cup pasta water and the cooked
    pasta. Increase heat to medium-high and toss vigorously.
    As the liquid in the pot evaporates, add another few
    tablespoons of pasta water. Repeat, tossing vigorously
    and adding pasta water, until the pasta is glossed in a
    thick sauce, 1 to 2 minutes.

    Remove from heat, squeeze in the juice of the whole
    lemon, and toss to combine. Season to taste with salt
    and pepper. Optionally, top with Parmesan, more lemon
    zest (if any remains), crushed red pepper and/or parsley
    as you like.
