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!)

Provided by Primordial

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.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 48m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 pounds ripe tomatoes
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 red onion, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
1 oregano sprig
Pinch chili flakes
1 teaspoon sugar
1 pound dried angel hair pasta
1/4 cup grated Parmesan, plus more for garnish
1/4 cup chiffonade basil, plus whole sprigs for garnish

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil and prepare an ice water bath. Cut a small "x" on the bottom of each tomato. In batches, place the tomatoes in the boiling water and blanch them for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until the skins are easy to peel away. Remove and immediately plunge into the ice bath. Peel the tomatoes and halve horizontally. Squeeze out the seeds, using your fingers to get them all. Roughly chop the peeled and seeded tomatoes. Set aside. (You can also use whole peeled canned tomatoes. Simply drain them, seed, and roughly chop).
  • Heat a large saute pan over medium high heat. Add the olive oil and heat. When the oil is hot, add the onions and garlic and saute for 2 minutes. Add the thyme leaves, oregano sprig, and chili flakes and saute until the garlic begins to turn golden brown. Add the tomatoes and the sugar and stir well. Lower the heat and cook slowly until the mixture is fairly dry, about 15 minutes.
  • Cook the angel hair pasta in boiling, salted water until al dente. Drain the pasta and add it to the sauce. Add the Parmesan and basil and toss well. Place in a large pasta bowl and garnish with Parmesan and basil sprigs.

ANGEL HAIR PASTA WITH PEPPERS AND TOMATOES



Angel Hair Pasta With Peppers and Tomatoes image

This simple pasta celebrates the end-of-summer harvest and is perfect for a light lunch or supper, or as part of a buffet. Bell peppers and other sweet peppers - like Corno di Toro and many other varieties of peppers of every hue - ripen in late summer, the same time as long-awaited flavorful (and multicolored) tomatoes, making their pairing seem almost preordained.

Categories     dinner, lunch, weekday, pastas, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 garlic cloves, smashed to a paste
2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar, or a bit less, to taste
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for bread crumbs, if using
Salt and pepper
Red-pepper flakes, to taste
1 cup finely diced sweet peppers (a mix of colors, if possible)
3 to 4 cups halved cherry tomatoes, or larger tomatoes cut into 1-inch chunks
1 pound angel hair pasta, capellini or spaghettini
2 ounces ricotta salata or mild feta cheese, roughly crumbled (about 1/2 cup)
1/4 cup coarse toasted bread crumbs, for garnish (optional)
1 small bunch basil, for garnish

Steps:

  • Put a large pot of water over high heat and bring to a boil.
  • In a low, wide salad bowl or pasta-serving bowl, combine garlic, red-wine vinegar and 3 tablespoons olive oil. Add a good pinch of salt, black pepper and red-pepper flakes.
  • Add sweet peppers and cherry tomatoes, season well with salt and toss to coat with dressing. (You may do this up to an hour before cooking the pasta.)
  • Salt the pasta water and cook the angel hair pasta until al dente, usually 4 to 5 minutes. Drain pasta in a colander.
  • Add cooked pasta to the bowl and toss well to coat, spooning over juices from bottom of bowl and bringing plenty of tomatoes and peppers to the surface.
  • Sprinkle with ricotta salata. If using bread crumbs, season with 1 teaspoon olive oil and a little salt, then sprinkle crumbs over surface.
  • Garnish with whole or torn basil leaves. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, ripe tomatoes, flavorful garlic, and fragrant herbs will make all the difference in the taste of your dish.
  • Cook the pasta al dente: This means cooking it until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and unpleasant.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the vegetables and pasta, make sure to use a large enough pan so that the ingredients have room to cook evenly. Overcrowding the pan will cause the ingredients to steam rather than sauté.
  • Season to taste: Be sure to taste the dish at various stages of cooking and adjust the seasonings as needed. A little bit of salt, pepper, and herbs can go a long way.

Conclusion:

Angel hair pasta with lemon, garlic, and tomatoes is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. With just a few fresh ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy. Serve it with a side of crusty bread or a simple green salad for a complete meal.
