Recipes Ingredients Seafood Recipes Shrimp Recipes Thai-Curry Shrimp Linguine 5.0 (2) Close Credit: Kate Sears Prep Time: 25 mins Total Time: 40 mins Servings: 4 When you want something different for a weeknight dinner but need to use up pantry staples, try this easy shrimp linguine. Fragrant Thai curry paste and creamy light coconut milk create a silky, complex sauce that coats long strands of pasta, green beans, and shrimp. Top it off with cooling cilantro and a squirt of lime juice, and you'll be out of your mealtime rut in no time. Directions Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook 4 minutes less than package instructions. Add green beans and cook until crisp-tender, about 3 more minutes. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water, then drain. In a large skillet, cook curry paste and cilantro stems in oil over medium heat, stirring, until very fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Add coconut milk, season with salt, and bring to a simmer; cook until thickened slightly, about 2 minutes. Stir in shrimp and cook until opaque, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in pasta, green beans, and lime juice. Toss to coat, adding enough reserved pasta water to create a silky sauce; season to taste. Serve with lime wedges and cilantro leaves.
