Linguine With Asparagus and Pine Nuts
Romulo Yanes
How to Make It
Step 1
Cook the pasta according to the package directions; drain the pasta and return it to the pot.
Step 2
Meanwhile, heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the pine nuts and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the asparagus and cook, tossing occasionally, until just tender, 2 to 3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the asparagus mixture to the pasta along with 1 teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper and toss to combine. Sprinkle with the Parmesan before serving.

This has become one of our favorites - I use the entire 1# box of linguine adjusting the other ingredient amounts as well. I use baby bella mushrooms and cut back to only 1# of asparagus.

Is there a good/satisfactory substitute for pine nuts?
I've tried but I just don't like them.
Thanks!

This was a very simple and delicious meal to cook. To add a bit more flavor - I added about a cup cubed pancetta to the pan after I heated the oil and then added the pine nuts and garlic.

Even my very carnivorous husband enjoyed this dinner. Fresh-from-the-garden asparagus helped!

Finally got around to making this tonight. So easy and delicious! Husband and my young children loved it. Will definitely add to my "easy weeknight favorites" file.

This is so delicious, I make it atleast twice a month!
One thing I suggest is to use an entire box of linguine and a 1/2 cup-3/4 cup of olive oil. The pasta tends to be a little dry with only 1/4 cup. And I also LOAD in the pine nuts (you can never have too many!) and use Pecorino Romano instead of Parmesan.
Enjoy--this dish is perfectly simple and delicious!
