Category: Pasta - Seafood
    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

1 pound linguine
1 cup pine nuts
2 large cloves garlic
2 cups fresh basil, well packed
1/4 cup Parmesan
1 to 1 1/4 cups olive oil
1 pound large shrimp, cooked and peeled

Cook the linguine according to pkg directions. Drain well.

In a food processor, place the pine nuts and garlic and grind to a fine paste. Add the basil and Parmesan and process until the mixture is pureed. In a slow steady stream, add the oil in a slow steady stream until the mixture thickens like mayonnaise; then you have added enough oil.

To serve, spoon the Pesto over the freshly cooked pasta and shrimp. Toss. The Pesto is enough to sauce 2 1/2 pounds of pasta. Keep the rest in the refrigerator. You can sprinkle extra Parmesan over it if you want and you should.
