How to Make Linguine With Garlic Shrimp

  1. Cook 1 pound linguine according to package directions. Drain and set aside, reserving about 1/2 cup of pasta water.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup chicken broth, 1 tablespoon cornstarch, and 1 teaspoon dried basil (or 1 tablespoon snipped fresh basil). Set aside.
  3. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 8 ounces sliced mushrooms and 1/2 cup chopped sweet bell pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until slightly softened.
  4. Add 4 cloves minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more, until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
  5. Stir in the broth mixture and 1 (14.5 ounce) can of undrained diced tomatoes. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens slightly.
  6. Add 1 pound shrimp (peeled and deveined). Cover and simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until the shrimp is pink and cooked through. If the sauce becomes too thick, add a tablespoon or two of the reserved pasta water.
  7. Add the cooked linguine to the skillet and toss to coat with the sauce.
  8. Serve immediately, topped with grated Parmesan cheese (optional) and fresh basil leaves (optional).
