Ingredients:
10 ounces organic linguine pasta or tagliatelle
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup reserved pasta water
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons organic tomato paste
1 tablespoon Calabrian chili paste (adjust to your spice preference)
Salt, to taste
Black pepper, to taste
1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
2 1/2 tablespoons fresh chives, finely chopped
1 large shallot, finely chopped
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
Freshly grated Parmesan cheese (optional garnish)
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon celery seed powder
12 ounces cooked lobster meat (tail, claw, and knuckle meat) or cooked large shrimp
Instructions:
Cook the Pasta:
In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the linguine or tagliatelle according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta and set aside.
Prepare the Sauce:
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the finely chopped shallot and garlic, and sauté until softened and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
Stir in the tomato paste and Calabrian chili paste, cooking for another 1-2 minutes.
Add Cream and Seasonings:
Pour in the heavy cream and reserved pasta water, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Season with salt, black pepper, dried oregano, and celery seed powder. Let the sauce simmer for about 5 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly.
Incorporate Lobster:
Add the cooked lobster meat (or shrimp) to the sauce, gently stirring to coat. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the seafood is heated through.
Combine with Pasta:
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet, tossing to combine and ensuring the pasta is well coated in the creamy sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add a little more reserved pasta water to reach your desired consistency.
Finish and Serve:
Stir in the chopped parsley and chives. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Serve the pasta hot, garnished with freshly grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
