Number Of Ingredients 8

Coarse salt
1/2 pound short whole-wheat pasta, such as lumache
1/2 pound medium tail-on shrimp, cleaned
1 bunch mustard greens (8 ounces), stems removed, leaves torn into 3-inch pieces
3 anchovies, chopped
Zest and juice of 1 lemon
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Pinch red chili flakes

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Cook pasta, according to package directions.
  • When the pasta has just 30 seconds remaining, stir in shrimp and mustard greens. Cook until shrimp are opaque and greens are vibrant. Drain, reserving 1 cup pasta water, and return everything to pot.
