INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

  • 1 (16 ounce) package linguine pasta
  • 1 pound peeled and deveined medium shrimp
  • 1 tablespoon liquid shrimp and crab boil seasoning
  •  
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1/3 cup diced red onion
  • 1/3 cup diced sweet red bell pepper
  • 1/2 cup canned whole kernel corn, drained
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon canned chipotle chile peppers in adobo sauce, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt

DIRECTIONS

  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add linguine and cook until al dente, 8 to 10 minutes; drain.

  3. Meanwhile, melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in garlic, and red onion, cook until the onion softens and turns translucent, about 4 minutes.

Was a little tasteless, but had good spice. Might be better with more herbs. MORE
