Serves: 4
INGREDIENTS
400 grams dried linguine
3 tablespoons olive oil
small knob butter
1 long red chilli, thinly sliced or ¼-½ teaspoon dried chilli flakes
zest 1 lemon
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 big handfuls rocket leaves
½ cup freshly grated parmesan, plus extra for serving
400 grams hot smoked salmon, skin removed
ground pepper
lemon wedges for serving
METHOD

Heat the oil and butter in the pot the pasta was cooked in and add the pasta, ¼ cup of the cooking water, chilli or chilli flakes, lemon zest and juice, rocket and parmesan. Turn to combine, adding more cooking water if needed to loosen the pasta.
