Categories     dinner, lunch, one pot, pastas, appetizer, main course, side dish

Time 50m

Yield Serves four

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 to 8 ounces fresh green beans, trimmed, strings removed if necessary, and broken in half if very long
2 cups chopped fresh ripe tomatoes
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 plump garlic clove, minced (more to taste)
Salt (I like to use a very good coarse sea salt or fleur de sel for this)
freshly ground pepper to taste
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar (optional)
2 tablespoons slivered basil
2 ounces crumbled feta (about 1/2 cup)
3/4 pound pasta (penne or fusilli are good choices)

Steps:

  • Combine the olive oil, tomatoes, garlic, basil, salt and pepper in a large bowl, and let sit for 15 to 30 minutes (or longer).
  • Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Fill a bowl with ice water. Add the green beans to the boiling water, and boil four to five minutes, depending on how crunchy you like them. Remove with a strainer or skimmer, and transfer to the ice water. Allow to cool for a few minutes, then drain and set aside.
  • Bring the water back to a boil, and add the pasta. Cook until al dente, about eight minutes. When the pasta is ready, drop the green beans back into the water to heat, then drain the pasta and beans and toss at once with the tomato mixture and the feta. Serve hot or room temperature.

SPAGHETTI WITH FETA, OLIVES AND GARLIC BEANS



Spaghetti With Feta, Olives And Garlic Beans image

Provided by Linda Wells

Categories     dinner, pastas, main course

Time 1h

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup olive oil
1 medium-sized onion, diced
3 large cloves garlic, peeled and minced
1 pound mixture of green and yellow beans, ends trimmed, and sliced at an angle into 1/2-inch pieces
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 1/4 pounds spaghetti, fresh or dried
30 Calamata olives, pitted and chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 large tomatoes, peeled, seeded and diced
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
6 tablespoons butter
1/2 pound feta cheese, cubed

Steps:

  • In a small saute pan, heat the olive oil over medium-low heat, add the onion and cook slowly until it is translucent. Add the three cloves of minced garlic and continue cooking for one minute. Add the beans and cover the pan. Cook slowly for about 30 minutes, until the beans are soft. If the mixture dries, add a few tablespoons of water. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Add the spaghetti and boil for about two to three minutes if using fresh pasta or 10 to 12 minutes if using dried, until the spaghetti is al dente. (Depending on the brand of spaghetti, cooking times may vary.) Drain well.
  • In a small bowl, combine the chopped olives with the finely chopped garlic. Set aside.
  • In another small bowl, toss the diced tomatoes with the fresh lemon juice. Set aside.
  • In a large saute pan, heat the butter until it is nut-colored. Add the cooked pasta and toss. Add the feta cheese and stir until slightly softened, about five to seven minutes.
  • Transfer a portion of the pasta onto each plate. In a straight line down the center of the plate, top the spaghetti with one mound of the bean mixture, one of the tomato-lemon mixture and a pile of the olive-garlic mixture. Serve immediately.

Orzo with Feta, Green Beans, and Tomatoes image

Categories     Bean     Pasta     Tomato     Side     Vegetarian     Feta     Summer     Gourmet

Yield Makes 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

10 ounces haricots verts(thin French green beans) or green beans
1 cup orzo (rice-shaped pasta)
1 medium onion
2 garlic cloves
3 medium vine-ripened tomatoes
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon white-wine vinegar
1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leafed parsley leaves
1 cup crumbled feta

Steps:

  • Fill a 4-quart kettle three fourths full with salted water and bring to a boil for beans and orzo.
  • Chop onion and mince garlic. Quarter and seed tomatoes. Cut quarters lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Trim beans and cut into 1-inch pieces. In a large skillet cook onion and garlic in oil over moderate heat until onion is softened. Add tomatoes and cook, stirring, until tomatoes are softened, about 2 minutes. Remove skillet from heat.
  • Have ready a bowl of ice and cold water. In boiling salted water blanch beans 1 minute. With a slotted spoon transfer beans to ice water to stop cooking. Drain beans well in a colander and pat dry. Add beans to tomato mixture and return water in kettle to a boil. Boil orzo until al dente and drain in colander. Add orzo to bean mixture with vinegar, parsley, feta, and salt and pepper to taste, tossing to combine well.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe tomatoes: This will ensure the best flavor for your pasta dish.
  • Don't overcook the green beans: You want them to be tender but still slightly crunchy.
  • Add the feta cheese at the end: This will prevent it from melting and becoming rubbery.
  • Season to taste: Be sure to add salt and pepper to your liking.
  • Serve immediately: This pasta dish is best enjoyed fresh out of the pan.
