CRAB LINGUINE WITH CHILLI & PARSLEY



Crab linguine with chilli & parsley image

Keep it simple with this restaurant-style dish that takes a few good-quality ingredients and lets them shine

Provided by Barney Desmazery

Categories     Dinner, Main course, Pasta

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

400g linguine
4 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1 red chilli, deseeded and chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 whole cooked crab, picked, or about 100g/4oz brown crabmeat and 200g/7oz fresh white crabmeat
small splash, about 5 tbsp, white wine
small squeeze of lemon (optional)
large handful flat-leaf parsley leaves, very finely chopped

Steps:

  • Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil and add the linguine. Give it a good stir and boil for 1 min less than the pack says. Stir well occasionally so it doesn't stick.
  • While the pasta cooks, gently heat 3 tbsp of olive oil with the chilli and garlic in a pan large enough to hold all the pasta comfortably. Cook the chilli and garlic very gently until they start to sizzle, then turn up the heat and add the white wine. Simmer everything until the wine and olive oil come together. Then take off the heat and add the brown crabmeat, using a wooden spatula or spoon to mash it into the olive oil to make a thick sauce.
  • When the pasta has had its cooking time, taste a strand - it should have a very slight bite. When it's ready, turn off the heat. Place the sauce on a very low heat and use a pair of kitchen tongs to lift the pasta from the water into the sauce.
  • Off the heat, add the white crabmeat and parsley to the pasta with a sprinkling of sea salt. Stir everything together really well, adding a drop of pasta water if it's starting to get claggy. Taste for seasoning and, if it needs a slight lift, add a small squeeze of lemon. Serve immediately twirled into pasta bowls and drizzled with the remaining oil.

Tips:

  • Use fresh crabmeat for the best flavor. If you can't find fresh crabmeat, frozen crabmeat will also work.
  • Be sure to cook the crabmeat gently so that it doesn't become tough.
  • Use a good quality white wine for the sauce. A dry white wine, such as a Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio, will work well.
  • Don't be afraid to add some fresh herbs to the sauce, such as parsley, basil, or thyme.
  • Serve the pasta with a side of crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce.

Conclusion:

Crab and white wine pasta is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. With its rich and flavorful sauce, tender crabmeat, and al dente pasta, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a seafood dish to impress your friends or family, give crab and white wine pasta a try.
