Fresh Herb Linguine

FRESH HERB LINGUINE

This is a favorite of our family in the summer.  Sometimes I will add small shrimp.

 

8 oz uncooked linguine

1/3 C butter or margarine

½ teaspoon fresh garlic

1/3 C chopped fresh parsley

1 ½ teaspoon fresh oregano

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 C freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Cook linguine according to package directions; drain.  In sauce pan cook butter and garlic over low heat until butter is melted.  Stir in linguine and remaining ingredients except Parmesan cheese.  Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until heated through (2 to 3 minutes).  Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

*1/2 teaspoon oregano leaves can be substituted for 1 ½ teaspoon fresh oregano.
