Preparation facts
Servings: 6
Yield: 8 cups (1.9L)
Ingredients
12 oz (340g) linguine, uncooked
1 medium onion, chopped
4 scallions, green parts included, chopped
1 lb (455g) shrimp, uncooked, shells and tails removed
1/2 cup (120mL) fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup (120mL) dry white wine
1 tsp (2g) lemon zest, grated
1/2 tsp (3mL) tabasco sauce
2 Tbs (30g) tomato paste
1 lb (455g) fresh spinach
Directions
Cook pasta in rapidly boiling water until done. Drain.
Wash spinach thoroughly and remove stems. Chop into 2-inch (5cm) pieces or, if the leaves are fairly small, leave them whole.
Heat oil in a 12-inch (30cm) skillet. Add onions and garlic and cook for 5 minutes.
Add shrimp and scallions. Stir fry for 3 minutes, until the shrimp are pink.
Add lemon juice, wine, lemon zest, tabasco sauce and tomato paste. Stir to combine all the ingredients. Add spinach leaves.
Cook, stirring occasionally, for 2–5 minutes more, just until the spinach leaves wilt and a sauce develops from the cooking spinach and the shrimp.
Transfer pasta into the skillet and toss to combine.
