CREAMY CHIVE PASTA WITH LEMON



Creamy Chive Pasta With Lemon image

This recipe is a good way to showcase any fresh chives you may have. In the spirit of buttered noodles with chives - or stir-fried lo mein with Chinese chives - this recipe uses the delicate alliums as an ingredient instead of a garnish. Their gentle onion flavor adds freshness to lemon-cream sauce, which is not unlike a delicate sour cream and onion dip. You can use crème fraîche for more tang, heavy cream for an Alfredo vibe, or ricotta for a hint of sweetness. To use another spring allium like ramps, leeks or a combination, thinly slice and simmer in heavy cream (not crème fraîche or ricotta) to soften before adding the other ingredients.

Number Of Ingredients 6

Kosher salt and black pepper
1 pound long noodles, like linguine or spaghetti
3/4 cup crème fraîche, heavy cream or ricotta
3/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan (1 3/4 ounces), plus more for serving
1 tablespoon fresh lemon zest plus 3 tablespoons lemon juice (from 1 to 2 lemons)
1/4 to 1 1/2 ounces chives, cut into 1-inch pieces

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup pasta cooking water, then drain the pasta.

Add the pasta, return to medium heat, and cook, tossing vigorously, until the noodles are well coated, 1 to 2 minutes. Add more pasta water as needed to gloss the noodles.
  • Add the chives and stir until evenly distributed and slightly wilted. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Eat with more grated Parmesan and black pepper on top.

ZUCCHINI SPAGHETTI WITH CREAMY LEMON-CHIVE DRESSING



Zucchini Spaghetti with Creamy Lemon-Chive Dressing image

This delicious recipe is from chef Patricia Wells's "Vegetable Harvest."

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Salad Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 pound small zucchini, rinsed, dried, and trimmed at both ends
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/4 cup Creamy Lemon-Chive Dressing
Fleur de sel

Steps:

  • Using the julienne blade of a mandoline, slice zucchini into long, thin strips. Transfer zucchini to a colander set over a mixing bowl. Toss zucchini with salt. Let stand 15 minutes at room temperature.
  • Gently squeeze zucchini to extract excess water. Transfer to a bowl and toss with just enough dressing to evenly coat the zucchini. Season with fleur de sel and serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh chives: Fresh chives add a bright, garlicky flavor to the dish. If you don't have fresh chives, you can substitute 1 tablespoon of dried chives.
  • Don't overcook the pasta: Cook the pasta according to the package directions until it is al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and won't hold the sauce as well.
  • Use a good quality Parmesan cheese: Parmesan cheese adds a nutty, salty flavor to the dish. Use a freshly grated Parmesan cheese for the best flavor.
  • Add the lemon juice and zest at the end: Adding the lemon juice and zest at the end of the cooking process will help to preserve their bright flavor.
  • Serve immediately: Creamy chive pasta is best served immediately after it is made. The pasta will start to absorb the sauce and become less creamy if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

Creamy chive pasta is a quick and easy dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken or vegetables. The creamy sauce is made with butter, flour, milk, and Parmesan cheese. The chives add a bright, garlicky flavor to the dish, and the lemon juice and zest brighten up the flavors. Creamy chive pasta is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
