Instructions

1.Combine softened butter, tomato paste and chives in a food processor and pulse until smooth and blended. Keep refrigerated until ready to make your pasta.

4. In a large skillet over medium high heat melt tomato butter and whisk in wine. Bring to a simmer and stir in sardines. 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.
