Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2½ lbs small heirloom tomatoes or large cherry tomatoes
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
6 large cloves of garlic (smashed)
kosher salt
freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 medium shallot (finely chopped)
½ cup panko breadcrumbs
1 garlic clove (finely chopped)
kosher salt
freshly ground black pepper
¾ lb (12 oz) dried spaghettini pasta (otherwise known as 'thin spaghetti)
extra virgin olive oil
2 ounces fresh basil leaves (sliced into ribbons, plus more for garnishing)
grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese (for serving)

Steps:

  • Roast Tomatoes: Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C). If your oven runs hot, I recommend reducing the temperature by 25°F or so, or reducing the cook time and watching the tomatoes carefully.
  • Bring a large pot (8 quarts or larger) of salted water to a boil for the pasta. Rinse the tomatoes and pat them dry. Place the tomatoes and smashed garlic cloves on a half sheet pan, drizzle with olive oil, and season with kosher salt and pepper. Spread them out evenly. Roast the tomatoes for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping them every 5 to 10 minutes or so, until they are soft and have just begun to collapse. Meanwhile, prepare the breadcrumb topping.
  • Prepare Garlic Breadcrumb Topping: In a small skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-low heat. Add the chopped shallot and sauté for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the shallots have softened and become translucent. Add the panko breadcrumbs and chopped garlic. Reduce the heat to low and toast the breadcrumbs for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent the breadcrumbs from burning - or until golden and fragrant. Remove from heat and place the breadcrumbs in a small bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and set aside.
  • Cook the Pasta: While the tomatoes finish roasting (and the breadcrumbs are prepared), boil the pasta until al dente. Reserve ½ cup of the starchy pasta cooking water and drain the pasta. Place the pasta back into the pot and drizzle with a glug of olive oil, and gently toss to coat. Add the warm, roasted tomato and garlic mixture as well as the basil ribbons, and toss gently until combined. Add reserved pasta water as needed to help loosen the pasta until the sauce coats the noodles evenly.
  • Garnish each pasta serving with basil, torn or sliced into thin ribbons, and a generous sprinkling of toasted garlic breadcrumbs. Serve with freshly grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese.

Spaghettini with Spicy Seafood image

My mom had her go-to dinner party dishes and this pasta was always a hit. It is one of my favorites-and one of the first recipes that made me love seafood. The beauty is in its simplicity: For all its flavor and elegance, the dish has the approachability of a quick weeknight meal. - Stephen Jackson, Recipe Developer

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Kosher salt
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 pound medium shrimp, peeled, deveined and tails removed
Freshly ground black pepper
8 ounces bay scallops or small sea scallops
12 ounces thin spaghetti
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1/2 cup dry white wine
One 15-ounce can diced tomatoes
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/2 cup torn fresh basil leaves
Zest of 1 lemon, finely grated

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  • Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until it is shimmering. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper, add to the skillet and cook until lightly browned on both sides, about 3 minutes total; transfer to a plate. Season the scallops with salt and pepper, add to the skillet and cook undisturbed until nicely browned on the bottom, about 2 minutes. Give the scallops a quick stir and cook 1 minute, then transfer to the plate with the shrimp.
  • Add the spaghetti to the boiling water and cook according to the package directions for al dente. Strain, reserving 1/2 cup cooking water.
  • While the spaghetti cooks, reduce the heat to medium, add the garlic to the skillet and cook until softened and lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Add the wine and cook, stirring to scrape up any brown bits, until reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, red pepper flakes and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Add the pasta, shrimp, scallops and reserved cooking water and toss to combine. Continue cooking until the sauce coats the pasta and the seafood is heated through, about 2 minutes.
  • Turn off the heat, stir in the parsley and basil and divide among four serving bowls. Sprinkle with the lemon zest, drizzle with more olive oil if desired and serve.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will have a big impact on the final dish. Use the best quality pasta, olive oil, and tomatoes that you can find.
  • Cook the pasta al dente: Al dente means "to the tooth" in Italian. This means that the pasta should be cooked through but still have a slight bite to it. Cooking the pasta al dente will help it to hold its shape and prevent it from becoming mushy.
  • Use a good quality olive oil: Olive oil is an important ingredient in many Italian dishes. Use a good quality extra virgin olive oil for the best flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the pasta, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the pasta from cooking evenly.
  • Season the pasta water: Add a generous amount of salt to the pasta water. This will help to flavor the pasta as it cooks.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs can add a lot of flavor to pasta dishes. Use basil, oregano, thyme, or parsley to taste.
  • Serve the pasta immediately: Pasta is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will help to prevent it from becoming dry or mushy.

Conclusion:

Spaghettini is a versatile pasta that can be used in a variety of dishes. Whether you're making a simple pasta with tomato sauce or a more complex dish with seafood or vegetables, spaghettini is a great choice. With its delicate flavor and al dente texture, spaghettini is sure to please everyone at your table.
