Spicy Shrimp Linguine


With the chives growing vigorously in the yard, I needed another use for them. So, I decided to make an easy pasta dish.

Boil 1 lb linguine in salted water.

Sauce/Marinade:

Juice from 1 lime
3 Tablespoons Olive Oil
2 teaspoons Worcestershire Sauce
1/2 teaspoon hot sauce
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried basil

Combine and set aside.

Peel 1 lb medium shrimp (raw) and add to marinade.

Dice a yellow and a red pepper. Cut several cherry tomatoes in half. Cut a handful of chives into 1/2 inch lengths.

Combine shrimp, vegetables and marinade and cook over medium heat in a large frying pan until shrimp is pink.

Toss with the pasta.

This dish is even better chilled the next day.
