•
2 tablespoons olive oil
•
12 slices cooked bacon, chopped
•
1 sweet onion, finely chopped
•
1 tablespoon minced garlic
•
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes, or to taste
•
1/2 cup dry white wine (such as Pinot Grigio)
•
1 pound uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined

1 cup basil pesto sauce

Directions
1
Bring a large pot of lightly salted and oiled water to a boil. Add linguine and cook until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes; drain.
2
Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add bacon, onion, garlic, and pepper flakes; sauté until onion is golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Add white wine and cook, stirring occasionally, until absorbed, 2 to 4 minutes. Stir in shrimp and langostino and sauté until pink, about 2 minutes.
3
Reduce the heat to medium and stir in strained linguine. Add peas, pesto sauce, and half-and-half; cook and stir until linguine absorbs the liquid, 5 to 10 minutes. Top each serving with Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.
