Linguine with Chilli, Crab and White Wine

By Sophie MichellPublished on 21 April 2022Pasta is often served with heavy, stodgy and creamy sauces.

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil

  • Step 2

    While the pasta is cooking, heat the oil up in a large frying pan. Add the garlic, then crumble in the chilli, fry for a couple of minutes, but do not get any colour on the garlic.

  • Step 3

    Add the crab, lemon and parsley then season well.

  • Step 4

    When the pasta is done (this should take about 10 minutes, but read the individual packet instructions and cook al’dente), drain, retaining about 1 tsbp of pasta water and add both to the frying pan. Cook for another 5 minutes and then serve with an extra drizzle of olive oil.
