Linguine with smoked salmon and peas

375g linguine or spaghetti
1 cups (180g) frozen peas
1/4 cup (60ml) extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic, crushed
2 teaspoons grated lemon rind
6 green onions (green shallots), sliced
200g smoked salmon, sliced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
1/4 cup (60ml) lemon juice
salt and freshly ground black pepper

Add the pasta to a large pan of boiling, salted water, cook until almost tender. Add the peas, boil until the pasta and peas are just tender; drain. Return the pasta and peas to the pan.

Meanwhile, heat the oil in a frying pan; add garlic, rind and green onion; cook, stirring, until fragrant, but not coloured.

Add onion mixture to hot pasta mixture with the smoked salmon, chives and lemon juice; season to taste with salt and pepper. Toss gently.

A friend just sent me this and says it is super yummy and so easy! I'm going to try it next week.
