INGREDIENTS
- 1 lb. linguine
- 3 tbsp. butter
- 2 large shallots, minced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- ½ cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 3 large handfuls arugula
- Kosher salt
- Ground black pepper
INSTRUCTIONS
- Cook linguine to al dente according to package instructions. Reserve about ½ cup pasta water.
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shallots and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Add balsamic vinegar and allow to simmer until cooked down to a glaze, about 5 minutes. Add heavy cream and whisk to combine with the balsamic vinegar. Allow to simmer over low heat until the mixture has reduced to about 1 to 1 ¼ cups. It should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Once pasta has finished cooking, add directly to skillet with cream sauce. Toss to combine. Add some of the reserved pasta water if it is too thick.
