This is a super easy and fantastic recipe if I do say so myself. Well actually my hubby is the brains behind this recipe so I can't take the credit anyway. I love this dish because it's so insanely good, it's easy to prep and it can be double to serve a large group. Perfect for our extended family dinner nights.

1. Cook linguine as directed on the package.
2. Toast pine nuts until golden brown then set aside.
3. Mix together basil, parsley, oregano, salt and garlic powder with oil and set aside.
4. Pound out chicken breasts, slice into thin strips. Sear them in an oiled pan on medium-high heat for 1 minute on each side, then turn down to medium and cook the rest of the way. Add shrimp so that they cook 3-4 minutes on each side or until just pink.
