This dish is great alongside the Lemony Chicken Milanese .
Ingredients
12 ounces spinach linguine
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup chopped fresh basil, divided
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 1/2 cups grated Pecorino Romano cheese, divided
Directions
Cook linguine in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite. Drain, reserving 1 cup pasta cooking liquid. Return pasta to same pot.
Meanwhile, heat olive oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1/2 cup basil, garlic, and crushed red pepper; stir 1 minute. Add wine and boil until slightly reduced, about 3 minutes. Add mixture from skillet, remaining 1/2 cup basil, and 3/4 cup cheese to pasta. Toss over medium heat until sauce coats pasta, adding reserved pasta liquid by 1/4 cupfuls if dry. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to bowl. Sprinkle with remaining 3/4 cup cheese.
