Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 slices bacon, chopped
3 shallots, minced
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups tomato puree
1/4 cup cream
1 pound linguine
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan, plus more for serving
1 cup baby arugula, roughly chopped
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, roughly chopped
1/4 cup fresh tarragon leaves, roughly chopped
1 cup frozen peas, thawed
Two 1 1/2-pound lobsters, steamed, meat removed

Steps:

  • Heat a large straight-sided skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and bacon and cook until the bacon is beginning to crisp, 8 minutes. Add the shallots, garlic and red pepper flakes and cook for an additional 3 minutes, until fragrant. Add the salt, tomato puree and cream; stir to combine. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the linguine for 1 minute less than the package instructions, about 10 minutes. Using tongs, remove the pasta from the water and add it directly to the pan with the sauce. Sprinkle the cheese directly on the naked pasta and toss to coat in sauce. Add up to 1 cup of the pasta water to loosen the sauce as needed. Stir in the arugula, basil, tarragon, peas and lobster meat; simmer until everything is heated through, 1 minute. Serve with additional Parmesan if desired.

LINGUINE WITH LOBSTER AND AVOCADO



Linguine With Lobster and Avocado image

The summer season was beginning, whetting the appetite for a copious seafood salad or a tangy ceviche. But instead, I tore a page from ceviche's playbook and assembled a pasta dish with the avocado, tomato, jalapeño, scallion, cilantro and citrus juice, along with lobster, to mingle with pasta. The result was brightly fresh-tasting, a warm-weather charmer with a touch of spice. Even during the brief cooking, some of the avocado will melt into the mixture, suavely coating the strands of linguine. But be sure that some of the avocado is still intact. The dish is satisfying as the main event yet light enough to serve as a first course followed by chicken or sausages hot off the grill.

Time 30m

Yield 4 first-course servings, 2 to 3 as a main course

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 ripe avocado, peeled, pitted, cut in 1/2-inch dice
Juice of 1 lemon
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and ground white pepper
8 ounces linguine
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 small jalapeño chile, seeded and minced
8 ounces grape tomatoes, halved
1 1 1/4-pound cooked lobster, meat removed and diced
2 scallions, chopped
2 tablespoons minced cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Thoroughly mix avocado and lemon juice in a bowl. Add 1 tablespoon oil, season with salt and pepper and set aside. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and add linguine.
  • Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil in a large skillet. Add onion and jalapeño and cook on medium-low until onion is translucent. Add tomatoes and continue cooking 5 minutes or so until they begin to soften and their skins start to wrinkle. Fold in lobster and avocado with its lemon juice and oil, and add 2/3 cup of the pasta water. Continue to cook on low.
  • When linguine is al dente, drain it and add it to the skillet. Add scallions and cilantro and fold ingredients together until well combined, the mixture is moist but not soupy, and only a little of the avocado has melted down. Check your salt and pepper, then serve.
