| 4 tbsp. tomato paste | |
| 1 tbsp. fresh chives chopped | |

| 1 tsp. sea salt | |

Toss sardines and butter together with cooked linguine until coated, add reserved pasta water or broth is too thick and simmer until hot about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt. |
| 5. | Portion pasta into serving bowls and serve with lemon wedges and chopped chives. |
