SHRIMP LINGUINE WITH HERBS, CORN AND ARUGULA



Shrimp Linguine With Herbs, Corn and Arugula image

The beauty of this pasta lies in its ease: Combine fresh, seasonal ingredients and let them shine. Here, shrimp is sautéed in butter until just cooked through, then set aside while the rest of the dish comes together. Peppery arugula, sweet corn and an abundance of fresh herbs round out this easy-to-assemble dinner, which is perfect after a long day at the beach or even just the office. Seared scallops would work well in place of shrimp, or you could try a combination of the two. Herbs, too, are up to you: Basil screams summer, but tarragon and Italian parsley would also be nice. White wine is used to make a light sauce for the pasta; you know what to do with any extra.

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Kosher salt
12 ounces linguine or spaghetti
1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails removed, if you prefer
Black pepper
1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick)
2 cups fresh corn kernels (from 2 to 3 ears)
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
1 cup dry white wine
8 ounces baby arugula, spinach or other tender greens
2 cups loosely packed, roughly chopped tender herbs, such as basil and mint
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling (optional)

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook according to package instructions until it is just short of al dente. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta cooking water, then drain pasta.
  • While the pasta cooks, season the shrimp well with salt and pepper. Melt half the butter in a deep 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the shrimp and sauté until just cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
  • Add the corn to the pan and season with salt. Cook, stirring frequently, until browned in spots, 4 to 5 minutes. Add garlic and red-pepper flakes and cook, stirring frequently, 1 minute.
  • Add the wine, bring to a simmer and cook until it is reduced by about half, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to combine. Add the arugula by the handful, stirring well between each addition, until wilted, adding some of the reserved pasta water as needed. Add the remaining butter and the shrimp to the pasta and toss until the butter is melted and everything is coated with sauce. Add more pasta water as needed.
  • Add half the herbs and toss to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer to a large bowl or serve directly from the skillet. Top with remaining herbs, drizzle with olive oil, if desired, and serve immediately.

ARUGULA AND CORN SALAD WITH ROASTED RED PEPPERS AND WHITE BEANS



Arugula and Corn Salad With Roasted Red Peppers and White Beans image

Canned beans can also be used in this composed salad with a base of sweet corn and pungent arugula. Since you don't need a broth for this composed salad, canned beans will work, though I always prefer the flavor of beans I've cooked myself. I like to use a white bean, either a cannellini or a navy bean. I've always loved sweet corn with pungent arugula. I combine the two for a salad bed, which I top with the roasted peppers and beans. So the dish is really two salads, one on top of the other.

CORN SALAD WITH ARUGULA

Valuable Tips for Making Arugula Corn and Herb Salad Recipes

1. Choose Fresh Ingredients

When making arugula corn and herb salad recipes, fresh ingredients are key. Using fresh arugula, corn, and herbs will ensure that your salad is packed with flavor and nutrients. If possible, try to purchase the ingredients from a local farmer's market or organic grocery store.

2. Prepare Dressing in Advance

The dressing is an important part of any salad, and arugula corn and herb salads are no exception. Ideally, you should prepare the dressing in advance so that the flavors can meld together. This will also save you time when it comes to assembling the salad.

Tips for Making Homemade Dressing

  • Use a jar or bottle with a tight-fitting lid to shake the dressing ingredients together.
  • Use high-quality ingredients, such as extra-virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
  • Experiment with flavor combinations, such as honey and mustard or lemon and garlic.
  • Adjust the seasoning to your taste.
3. Add Texture with Nuts and Seeds

To add extra texture and crunch to your arugula corn and herb salad, consider adding nuts and seeds. Toasted almonds, pumpkin seeds, and sunflower seeds are all great options. Nuts and seeds also add healthy fats and protein to your salad, making it more filling and satisfying.

Tips for Toasting Nuts and Seeds

  • Spread the nuts or seeds in a single layer on a baking sheet.
  • Bake at 350°F for 5-10 minutes, or until fragrant and lightly browned.
  • Stir the nuts or seeds occasionally to prevent burning.
4. Use a Variety of Herbs

Herbs are an important part of arugula corn and herb salad recipes, adding both flavor and nutrition. Consider using a variety of herbs, such as basil, parsley, cilantro, and mint. You can also experiment with different combinations of herbs to find your favorite flavor profile.

Tips for Using Fresh Herbs

  • Wash the herbs thoroughly and remove any stems or tough leaves.
  • Chop the herbs finely to distribute the flavor throughout the salad.
  • Avoid overusing herbs, as they can overpower the other flavors in the salad.
5. Cook the Corn Properly

Corn is a staple ingredient in arugula corn and herb salad recipes, but it's important to cook it properly in order to get the best flavor and texture. For the best results, grill or roast the corn before adding it to the salad. This will give it a smoky, caramelized flavor that pairs well with the other ingredients.

Tips for Grilling or Roasting Corn

  • Preheat your grill or oven to high heat.
  • Brush the corn with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  • Grill or roast the corn for 5-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until charred and cooked through.
  • Allow the corn to cool slightly before removing the kernels with a sharp knife.
6. Mix the Salad Well

Mixing the salad well is essential to ensure that all of the ingredients are evenly distributed and coated in the dressing. Use a large mixing bowl and toss the ingredients gently but thoroughly. This will also help to prevent any clumps of arugula or corn from settling at the bottom of the bowl.

Tips for Mixing Salads

  • Use a large mixing bowl to give yourself plenty of room to toss the ingredients.
  • Use a gentle tossing motion to avoid crushing the ingredients.
  • Make sure that all of the ingredients are coated in dressing.
  • Adjust the seasoning to your taste.
7. Serve Immediately

Arugula corn and herb salads are best served immediately after they are made. This will ensure that the ingredients are at their freshest and the flavors are at their peak. If you must refrigerate the salad before serving, omit any delicate herbs or greens and add them just before serving.

Tips for Serving Salads

  • Use a large serving bowl or platter to showcase the salad.
  • Garnish the salad with additional herbs or nuts for added visual appeal.
  • Serve the salad with crusty bread or a side of grilled chicken for a complete meal.

Final Thoughts

Arugula corn and herb salads are a great way to enjoy fresh, healthy ingredients in a flavorful and satisfying dish. By following these valuable tips, you can create a salad that is both delicious and visually appealing. Experiment with different herbs, dressings, and toppings to find your favorite flavor combinations. Enjoy!
