This simple, healthy pasta dish is packed with flavour and

Ingredients
- 360g good quality linguine (or angel hair pasta)
- 120ml olive oil
- 25g unsalted butter
- 12 cherry tomatoes, halved
- 2 cloves garlic, sliced
- 1 red chilli, finely sliced
- Zest of 1 lemon, finely grated
- 4 tbsp chopped parsley, plus extra to garnish
- 300g cooked lobster meat (or white crab meat - from a can is fine)
Instructions
1. Cook the pasta in a large pan of boiling
salted water, for 3 minutes less than the instructions on the packet. 2. Whilst the pasta is cooking, fry the tomatoes
over a medium heat with the butter, and 3 tbsp of the oil,
until soft but not coloured (about 3 minutes). 3. Add the garlic, chilli and remaining oil and continue to fry until the garlic is starting to colour. 4. Add 100ml of the pasta cooking water and the drained linguine. Continue cooking for a final 3 minutes. 5. Stir through the lemon zest, lobster and parsley, and heat through (about 30 seconds). 6. Serve immediately with more chopped
parsley to garnish.
