Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Salt
1/2 tablespoon butter
4 cloves garlic, finely minced
1 tablespoon minced fresh tarragon leaves
1/3 cup heavy cream
12 ounces fresh linguine
2 ounces fresh, soft goat cheese, crumbled
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring at least six cups of salted water to a boil for the linguine.
  • While the water is heating, melt the butter over medium heat in a large nonstick skillet. Add the garlic and saute a minute or so, until it softens and barely takes on color. Stir in the tarragon and cream, bring to a boil and remove from the heat.
  • When the water is boiling, stir in the linguine and cook for two to three minutes. Drain thoroughly.
  • Then put the linguine in the skillet and reheat, stirring gently. Quickly fold in the goat cheese, season with salt and pepper and serve at once.
