Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 to 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 medium onions, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch-thick rings
1 teaspoon sugar
4 cups chicken broth (preferably homemade) or water
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1 pound fettuccine
1 head chicory (curly endive), mustard greens, kale, or arugula, washed, with tough ribs removed and leaves torn into pieces

Steps:

  • Heat oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and sugar and cook, stirring once or twice, until well browned, about 10 minutes. Turn heat to low; continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until very soft, about 10 minutes.
  • Remove half the onions and set aside. Add broth or water to the pan and bring to a boil. Cook over high heat, scraping bottom of pan, for 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Cook pasta in boiling salted water until a little underdone, and drain. Add to broth; simmer for 2 to 3 minutes. Add greens; cook, covered, until wilted, about 1 minute. Stir in additional tablespoon of butter, if desired. Divide among 4 shallow bowls, garnish with reserved onions, and serve.

I thought this pasta dish was just okay. The caramelized onions were a bit too sweet for my taste, but the bitter greens were perfect. I think I would have liked it better if the caramelized onions were less sweet.

This pasta dish was easy to make and turned out great! I used a mix of baby kale and spinach for the bitter greens, and it was delicious. I will definitely be making this again.

This pasta dish was a bit too rich for my taste. The caramelized onions were a bit too sweet, and the bitter greens were a bit too bitter. I think it would have been better if the flavors were more balanced.

I'm not a big fan of bitter greens, but I thought this pasta dish was really good. The caramelized onions were really sweet and flavorful, and they balanced out the bitterness of the greens.

This pasta dish was a disappointment. The caramelized onions were burnt, and the bitter greens were wilted. I would not recommend this recipe.
