Ingredients
- 1 pound angel hair pasta
- Salt
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 6 ounces pancetta, chopped
- 1 medium red onion, peeled, cut in 1/2, and thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- 1/4 cup dry white wine, optional
- 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
- 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 1/2 pounds langoustines
- 1/4 cup freshly chopped parsley leaves
- 1 teaspoon finely grated fresh lemon zest, for garnish
- Freshly grated Parmesan, optional
Preparation
Step 1
In a large pot of salted water, cook the pasta until just al dente. Drain and return to the pot. Cover to keep warm.
Meanwhile, in a large saute pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the pancetta and cook until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes.
To the oil in the pan, add the onions and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Add the wine, 3/4 teaspoon salt, red pepper, lemon juice, and langoustines and cook, stirring, until the shellfish are pink and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add the parsley and stir to combine.
Add the cooked pasta to the shellfish mixture and toss well to combine. Cook until the pasta is heated through, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat, add the lemon zest, and adjust the seasoning, to taste. Sprinkle with Parmesan. Spoon into individual pasta bowls or onto large plates, and serve immediately.
