Steps:
- Heat a large straight-sided skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and bacon and cook until the bacon is beginning to crisp, 8 minutes. Add the shallots, garlic and red pepper flakes and cook for an additional 3 minutes, until fragrant. Add the salt, tomato puree and cream; stir to combine. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the linguine for 1 minute less than the package instructions, about 10 minutes. Using tongs, remove the pasta from the water and add it directly to the pan with the sauce. Sprinkle the cheese directly on the naked pasta and toss to coat in sauce. Add up to 1 cup of the pasta water to loosen the sauce as needed. Stir in the arugula, basil, tarragon, peas and lobster meat; simmer until everything is heated through, 1 minute. Serve with additional Parmesan if desired.

Tips:
- Use fresh lobster meat. This will give your pasta dish the best flavor.
- Cook the lobster meat properly. Overcooked lobster meat will be tough and chewy. Cook it just until it is opaque and tender.
- Use a good quality pasta. This will make a big difference in the final dish. Look for a pasta that is made with durum wheat and has a good texture.
- Don't overcook the pasta. Al dente pasta is the best. Cook it according to the package directions.
- Use a flavorful sauce. The sauce is what will really make your pasta dish sing. Use a sauce that is made with fresh ingredients and has a good balance of flavors.
- Garnish your pasta dish with fresh herbs. This will add a pop of color and flavor.
Conclusion:
Pasta with lobster is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a little planning and effort, you can create a pasta dish that will impress your friends and family.
