Recipe Instructions

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and saute until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the wine and simmer 2 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes and basil, return to a boil and cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Meanwhile add the remaining teaspoon of olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt to the boiling water. Stir in the linguine and cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, about 10 minutes.

Add the shrimp and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to the tomato mixture. Reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring frequently, until the shrimp are pink and cooked through, about 2 minutes. Taste the sauce for seasoning.

Drain the pasta and transfer to a large bowl. Add the red sauce and toss well. Divide the pasta and sauce among 4 dinner plates and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, if desired.
