ANGEL HAIR PASTA WITH LEMON AND GARLIC



Angel Hair Pasta with Lemon and Garlic image

Delicate angel hair pasta demands a light and elegant sauce, such as this simple white wine mixture flecked with bits of fresh tomato and basil. It's a terrific first course or luncheon dish. I find the spinach and semolina varieties to be somewhat sturdier than plain wheat-flour angel hair pasta, but you still need to handle them carefully. Cook for only 30 seconds to 1 minute, toss, and serve immediately.

ANGEL HAIR PASTA WITH LEMON, GARLIC AND TOMATOES



Angel Hair Pasta With Lemon, Garlic and Tomatoes image

Served with a fresh salad, I think this is a perfect summer weekday meal. It comes together very fast if you prepare all the ingredients beforehand. (note: typo in wine amount has been corrected - 1/4 cup, not 1 1/4 cup - yowza, that'd be a lot of wine!)

Categories     European

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb angel hair pasta
1/2 cup fresh basil, chopped
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, freshly grated
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
4 -8 garlic cloves, finely minced
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
2 1/2 cups vine-ripe tomatoes, seeded and diced medium
1 teaspoon coarse salt
fresh ground black pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • Cook the pasta in several quarts of salted water (keep an eye on it - angel hair cooks a lot faster than other pasta and you don't want it mushy). Place it in a large serving bowl, add the basil and Parmesan cheese and toss to mix.
  • While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet and saute the garlic for a minute or so until it *just* begins to change color. Add the wine and cook until it has been reduced by about half (2-4 minutes). Stir in the lemon juice and tomatoes and remove the sauce from heat until the pasta is ready.
  • Pour lemon-tomato sauce over pasta mixture, add salt and pepper to taste and toss to mix. Serve with extra Parmesan on the side, if desired.
