Preparation
- Bring at least six cups of salted water to a boil for the linguine.
- While the water is heating, melt the butter over medium heat in a large nonstick skillet. Add the garlic and saute a minute or so, until it softens and barely takes on color. Stir in the tarragon and cream, bring to a boil and remove from the heat.
- When the water is boiling, stir in the linguine and cook for two to three minutes. Drain thoroughly.
- Then put the linguine in the skillet and reheat, stirring gently. Quickly fold in the goat cheese, season with salt and pepper and serve at once.
