how to make Curry Shrimp Linguine

Ingredients:

1 package (16 ounces) linguine
3 teaspoons curry powder
1 can (13.66 ounces) light coconut milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1-1/4 pounds uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/3 cup minced fresh cilantro

Directions:

Cook the linguine according to the package directions until al dente.
While the pasta is cooking, heat a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the curry powder to the skillet and toast it for 2 minutes, stirring frequently to avoid burning.
Stir in the light coconut milk, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.
Add the shrimp to the skillet. Cook until the shrimp turn pink, about 5-6 minutes.
Drain the linguine and toss it with the shrimp mixture and cilantro in the skillet.

how to serve Curry Shrimp Linguine

Serve the Curry Shrimp Linguine hot. You can garnish it with extra cilantro for a pop of color and freshness. It goes well with a side of garlic bread or a simple salad. For a more festive touch, consider adding a squeeze of lime juice before serving.

how to store Curry Shrimp Linguine

If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will last for about 2-3 days. To reheat, simply place the dish in the microwave or on the stove over low heat until warm. If the pasta seems dry, you can add a splash of coconut milk or water.

tips to make Curry Shrimp Linguine

Be careful not to overcook the shrimp; they can become rubbery if left too long in the heat.
Feel free to add vegetables like bell peppers or snap peas for extra nutrition and color.
If you prefer a spicier version, add some red pepper flakes or your favorite hot sauce.

variation (if any)

You can switch the shrimp for other proteins like chicken or tofu. You can also use rice noodles instead of linguine for a gluten-free option. Another variation is to experiment with different spices, like adding turmeric or ginger for an extra twist.

FAQs
