Instructions

PREP
1

Before starting, wash and dry all produce.In Step 4, use this heat guide to determine what spice level you prefer: 1/4 tsp mild, 1/2 tsp medium, 1 tsp spicy and 2 tsp extra-spicy! In a large pot, add 10 cups water and 2 tsp salt. (NOTE: Use same for 4 ppl.) Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.While water boils, trim bottom 1-inch from asparagus and discard, then cut spears into 1-inch pieces. Zest lemon, then cut into wedges. Thinly slice chili, removing seeds for less heat. (NOTE: We suggest using gloves when prepping chili!). Peel, then mince or grate the garlic.

COOK VEGGIES

While linguine cooks, heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat. When hot, add 1 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then asparagus and peas. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 4-5 min.

MAKE SAUCE
4

To the pan with veggies, add garlic, basil pesto, reserved pasta water and 1 tsp chili (NOTE: Reference Heat Guide). Cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens slightly, 2-3 min. Add linguine, lemon zest, half the Parmesan and 1 tbsp butter (dbl for 4 ppl). Remove from heat. Stir together until linguine is coated and butter is melted.
