Delicious. A quick, simple and elegant dish. I used linguine instead of the bow-tie. Use fresh basil if you can, it adds so much more flavor.

This was SO delicious.. I couldn't get a hold of any vermouth, so i made it without it, and it was still really good. Thanx so much for posting this recipe!!

Great flavours in this pasta dish, I used prawn meat in place of the shrimps. Its quick to make and easy too, will make this again.
