My kids love it, too.

Ive written before aboutmy noodle-loving daughterswe have pasta in some form at least a couple of times a week.

Then I remembered Nigellas Lemon Linguine.

She cooked it in the first episode of her show, “Nigella Bites.”

Sounds good to me, Nigella!

Once thewater has come to a boil, it takes about 10 minutes from start to finish.

You whisk up the sauce ingredients while the pasta is boiling, then combine everything and serve.

Nigellas printed version of the recipe makes a lot of pasta.

It calls for two pounds of linguine, far more than my family can eat in one night.

Since this sauce is best when served right away, I make a half batch.

You could even make a quarter batch if you likeits a very easy recipe to scale up or down.

Now that my girls have a new favorite pasta dish, Ill be serving it a lot more often.
