Categories     main-dish

Time 2h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 tablespoons olive oil
6 boneless skinless chicken thighs, finely chopped
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup finely chopped shallots
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2/3 cup dry white wine
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh rosemary leaves
4 cups Marinara Sauce, recipe follows
1 pound linguine
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 small onions, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 stalks celery, finely chopped
2 carrots, peeled and finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon sea salt, plus more to taste
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
Two 32-ounce cans crushed tomatoes
2 dried bay leaves

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, season with salt and pepper, and cook until the juices evaporate and the chicken is golden, about 10 minutes. Add the shallots and garlic and saute until tender, about 2 minutes. Add the wine and stir to scrape up any brown bits on the bottom of the skillet. Add the rosemary and mix well. Add the Marinara Sauce and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer gently until the flavors blend, about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the linguine and cook until al dente, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes. Drain, reserving 1 cup of cooking liquid. Add the linguine to the ragu and toss to coat, adding some reserved cooking liquid to moisten. Transfer the pasta to a large serving bowl. Sprinkle with Parmesan and serve.
  • In a large casserole pot, heat the oil over a medium-high flame. Add the onions and garlic and saute until the onions are translucent, about 10 minutes. Add the celery, carrots, and 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Saute until all the vegetables are soft, about 10 minutes. Add the tomatoes and bay leaves, and simmer uncovered over low heat until the sauce thickens, about 1 hour. Remove and discard the bay leaf. Season the sauce with more salt and pepper, to taste.

LINGUINE WITH CHICKEN RAGU



Linguine With Chicken Ragu image

Another recipe I adopted from Giada's site. WONDERFUL! I highly recommend making the marinara sauce from Giada listed at the bottom of this recipe for the best flavor. I don't think the average jar sauce will do this justice. I like to freeze batches of marinara and just thaw as I need for my recipes. If you do this, you can whip this together in no time! My family adores this. I also usually serve this over spaghetti rather than linguine...personal preference. KEEP IN MIND THE MARINARA MAKES 2 QUARTS - YOU ONLY NEED 4 CUPS FOR THIS RECIPE SO NUTRITION INFO WILL BE OFF SINCE YOU'LL BE SAVING SOME OF THE SAUCE.

My husband, James, made this for our Mother's Day brunch as a side dish but you can add grilled chicken and enjoy it as your main course.

Linguine with Sun-Dried Tomatoes image

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (6-ounce) jar (about) marinated sun- dried tomato, drained
1 clove small garlic
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
salt
1 pound linguini noodle
6 fresh basil leaves, stacked and cut into thin ribbons

VARIATIONS: Add a can of drained olive oil-packed tuna to the pasta and sauce. Or add some chopped black olives or anchovies. From "1,000 Italian Recipes." Copyright 2004 by Michele Scicolone.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the final dish. Look for ripe tomatoes, tender chicken, and flavorful cheese.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the chicken, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly and will make it more likely to stick.
  • Cook the chicken until it is cooked through: Use a meat thermometer to make sure that the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Use a good quality olive oil: A good quality olive oil will add flavor and richness to the dish.
  • Don't overcook the pasta: Cook the pasta according to the package directions, but be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and unpleasant to eat.

Conclusion:

This recipe for Linguini with Chicken, Sun-Dried Tomatoes, and Arugula Ragu is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The combination of flavors and textures in this dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
