Zesty Pesto Shrimp Linguine
Sautéed shrimp and al dente linguine tossed in a vibrant, zesty basil pesto with burst cherry tomatoes for a bright and refreshing finish.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz shrimp
1 oz whole wheat linguine
1 cup zucchini
0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
1 tbsp pine nuts
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp parmesan cheese
1 clove garlic
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.25 cup fresh basil
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the linguine according to package directions until al dente.
While pasta cooks, pulse the basil, pine nuts, parmesan, garlic, lemon juice, and half the olive oil in a small food processor until a coarse pesto forms.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the shrimp, sea salt, and black pepper to the skillet, sautéing for 2-3 minutes until pink and opaque.
Stir in the halved cherry tomatoes and sliced zucchini, cooking for another 2 minutes until the tomatoes begin to soften.
Drain the pasta, reserving a splash of pasta water, and add the noodles to the skillet.
Toss everything with the prepared pesto and reserved pasta water until well-coated and fragrant.
