Cooking adventures in a small, closet sized, kitchen. - I came to realize that my meals were boring and that I had been eating the same few dishes over and over again for years. It was time for a change! I now spend my free time searching for, creating and trying tasty new recipes in my closet sized kitchen.

Shrimp Linguine in a Tomato and White Wine Sauce

[heart_this] · Jan 5, 2010 · 49 Comments

Shrimp Linguine in a Tomato and White Wine Sauce

A quick and easy shrimp linguine in a tomato and white wine sauce that is nice and light and healthy and yet full of flavour.

Over the last while I have really enjoyed a number of Greek shrimp and tomato dishes such as shrimp saganaki . More recently I came across another one in the form of a shrimp pasta on Kalofagas and it quickly made it to my meal plan. This recipe is really easy to make and you can tell that it will taste great just by looking at the ingredients list. The tomato sauce is a pretty simple one consisting of onions, garlic, some white wine, the tomatoes, oregano, and of course lots of fresh herbs. This pasta would be perfect to make with fresh ripe tomatoes were they in season but in the middle of winter canned tomatoes worked well. I had high hopes for this dish and it did not disappoint! The shrimp pasta in the tomato sauce was so good! Given that all of the recipes that this one reminded me of added feta to the shrimp and tomato sauce combo, I could not resist topping the pasta with some crumbled feta.

    Kevin, often the simpler dishes are the tastiest and they benefit from not being fussed too much with ingredients.

    Great looking plate, delighted you enjoyed it.

    With the feta added, it's a kind of reconstructed saganaki. I like that. At this time of year here in the Northeast, tomatoes aren't the only challenge; good tasting fresh herbs can be a challenge, too. I'm so spoiled by my summer herb garden!

    This is one of my most favourite recipes of yours; so light and fresh. My sister doesn’t care for shrimp, so I have also made it with chicken.

    This recipe was just okay. I think the right flavors are there but the quantities are weird. Who calls 1 pound of shrimp + 1 pound of pasta a meal for 4? Made it with a half pound of pasta and still had way more pasta than shrimp and leftovers for days!

    Great inspiration for an Italian dinner tonight. Used left over roasted chicken, added some capers, a few left over fresh cherry tomatoes to the onion sautee, and a bay leaf — served over angel hair with fresh parmesean reggiano. El perfecto! Thanks again — great recipe!

    This recipe of yours is one of my favourites. As my sister does not like shrimp, I sometimes make it with chicken and stir fry some shrimp on the side.
