Lobster Orzo Carbonara
This is my Lobster Orzo Carbonara with Chili Crisp and it is one of my favorite recipes. This recipe uses a lobster tail for the lobster meat, and we use the shell for a super quick lobster stock to cook the orzo in. Unlike traditional carbonara, there is no guanciale in this. Which makes it both pescatarian and halal!

Linguine and Clams
Linguine alle vongole or linguine with clams is a quintessential summery Italian pasta recipe. Al dente linguine with a white wine sauce of garlic, fresh clams, lemon zest and more. This particular recipe differs a bit from the traditional recipe, as I infuse saffron threads into the wine sauce with some butter, to make a luxurious finished pasta dish! I imagine myself enjoying a dish like this at a waterfront restaurant on the coast of Italy, with a crisp glass of wine. Delicious!
