This is a personal favourite of mine when it comes to very quick pasta recipes. We're using fresh linguine and adding hot smoked trout and some asparagus, delicious! And it only take 20 minutes.
Ingredients
- 180g (6 oz) smoked trout, flaked
- 220g (8 oz) fresh linguine
- 2 bunches asparagus, sliced into 1cm (1/2 inch) pieces
- zest of 2 lemons
- juice of 1 lemon (plus more if needed)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- salt, to taste
Directions
In a large frying pan, bring 800ml (3 1/4 cups) of water to a boil. Once boiling, season with salt and add the asparagus. Cook for 1 minute.
- Add the fresh linguine to the pan and continue to cook for another 3–4 minutes, until the pasta is just tender.
- Add the smoked trout, lemon zest, and juice of one lemon to the pan. Stir well, allowing the lemon juice to emulsify with the starchy pasta water. Add the olive oil and toss to combine. Check the seasoning, adding more salt or lemon juice to taste if needed.
- Serve immediately, garnished with extra lemon zest if desired.
