Ingredients

  • 1 (8 ounce) package linguine pasta
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Cook linguine in boiling water until cooked through but still firm to the bite, about 11 minutes; drain, reserving 2 tablespoons pasta water.

Step 2
