Seafood Linguini With White Wine Sauce image

We were craving shrimp and white wine sauce on night, and this is what I came up with. Bay scallops were on sale at the store, so I threw those in too. Please feel free to use any white wine you like. I happened to have a nice bottle of sauvignon blanc on hand, and it worked just fine. As a matter of fact, it tasted amazing. Note on the sea salt: I have some Tuscan flavored sea salt which is what I used for seasoning. If you don't have a flavored salt, please feel free to add some dried spices to taste such as dried Italian spice or a little rosemary. This also tastes great reheated the next day after the pasta absorbs more of the sauce.

3 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 cups white wine (sauvignon blanc)
1 teaspoon lemon zest

  • Melt a couple tablespoons of the butter into the olive oil and garlic, and add the shrimp.
  • Add the white wine and bring to a boil.
