Ingredients

Ingredients

  • Coarse salt and ground pepper 1 pound linguine 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil 2 shallots, minced 1 cup heavy cream 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest, plus 2 tablespoons lemon juice (from 1 lemon)

Directions

In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta according to package instructions. Reserve 1 cup pasta water; drain pasta and return to pot.

Meanwhile, in a small pot, heat oil over medium. Add shallots, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring, until tender, 4 minutes. Add cream and lemon zest. Bring to a boil and cook until slightly thickened, 8 minutes. Add lemon juice and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Pour cream sauce over pasta and toss, adding enough pasta water to create a thin sauce that coats pasta. Taste and adjust seasoning, if needed, before serving.

Cook’s Notes If you like, add 1 cup fresh broccoli or frozen peas to the pasta just before it’s done.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 5.0 stars       12/21/2019   Easy to make and absolutely delicious! This has become a family favorite!  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 5.0 stars       11/24/2019   Made as written and also with a bit of frozen pesto, a dash of red pepper and garlic-it’s so simple and delicious as is and a nice start to add your own twist. It’s a keeper. Great tossed with tortellini or over fish too!  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       11/13/2019   How do you keep it from curdling after you add the lemon juice?  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 5 stars       06/02/2019   Light, creamy, tangy, delicious. Follow the recipe, you’re good.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 5 stars       05/29/2019   It's a delicious recipe. Being very rich, it's definitely just a once-in-a-while thing. Tastes great with grilled shrimp or chicken.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 1 stars       10/21/2018   Turned out terribly! Instead of using lemon, I used watermelon rind, and I ended up scalding the sauce to the bottom of the oven. Complete failure, and I can't believe they would publish this recipe!  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 5 stars       08/15/2013   Very, very good sauce. Rich and fresh. Not too mention fast and easy!  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 5 stars       07/07/2011   This is the easiest and most excellent change to a tomato sauce for pasta. Its wonderful as a light summer dish paired with broccoli and shrimp! Nothing to change its superb the way it is! Great with any kind of pasta too....EXCELLENT!
