EASY CRAB AND MUSHROOM LINGUINE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta until al dente and reserve ½ cup pasta cooking water. Drain and set aside. Note: The pasta sauce takes about 30 minutes to make, so try to time it so that you drain the pasta right as it's time to throw it in the sauce.
• Heat the oil in a wide pot over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook for 3 minutes until just beginning to soften. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring often, for 8-10 minutes until well-browned. Season with salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper.
• Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
• Melt the butter into the garlic. Once melted and frothy, sprinkle the flour on top and toss to coat.
• Add half the vegetable stock and stir or whisk regularly until completely incorporated. Add the remaining stock and bring to a low boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Taste and season to preferences.
• Add the crab meat to the sauce and cook for 5 minutes. Add the pea shoots and parsley and toss gently to combine. Cook for 3 minutes until the pea shoots are bright green.
• Add the pasta cooking water along with the cooked linguine and toss very gently to combine, being careful not to break up the crab too much. Cook for 1 minute and turn off the heat.
• Prior to adding the pasta to the sauce, cook the breadcrumbs. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the breadcrumbs and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring regularly, until golden brown and toasted. Turn off the heat.
• Add the parsley and parmesan and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
• Divide the cooked pasta between shallow bowls and sprinkle the breadcrumbs on top of each dish. Enjoy!

• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook for at least a few minutes less than the package directs. (You want the pasta very al dente; it will finish softening in the sauce.) Drain well.

Arrange in a shallow 2-quart gratin dish or 9- by 13-inch pan. Bake until cheese is melted and bubbly and browned in spots, 10 to 15 minutes.
