Yield Makes 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 ounces linguine
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 tablespoon chopped red jalapeño chiles
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon butter
12 uncooked large shrimp, peeled and deveined with tails intact
12 slender asparagus, trimmed, cut diagonally into 1 1/2-inch pieces
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 cups (packed) fresh basil leaves, thinly sliced, plus additional for garnish
2 lemon wedges

Steps:

  • Cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite, stirring occasionally.
  • Meanwhile, heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and jalapeño; sauté 1 minute. Add wine and butter; boil 2 minutes. Add shrimp, asparagus, and lemon juice. Toss until asparagus is just tender and shrimp are just opaque in center, about 3 minutes.
  • Drain pasta and add to skillet; add 2 cups sliced basil leaves and toss until basil wilts and sauce coats pasta, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper. Divide pasta between 2 plates. Garnish with fresh basil leaves and lemon wedges and serve.

This dish was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would have liked it more if I had used less salt.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my shrimp were overcooked. I think I cooked them for too long.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover shrimp. I had some shrimp leftover from a party and this was the perfect way to use them up.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my dish turned out bland and watery. I think I might have used too much water when cooking the pasta.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's because I used a spicy chili pepper. Next time I'll use a milder pepper.

I'm not a huge fan of basil, so I used parsley instead. It was still delicious!

I substituted broccoli for the asparagus and it turned out great! This dish is very versatile and can be customized to your liking.

The asparagus was perfectly cooked and still had a bit of a crunch. The shrimp were plump and juicy, and the basil added a nice pop of flavor.
