Categories     Pasta     Sauté

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 oz whole-wheat angel hair pasta
2 tbs olive oil, divided
4 cloves garlic, minced
3 cups shredded, peeled sweet potato (about 1 medium)
1 large red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 cup diced plum tomatoes
1/2 cup water
2 tbs chopped fresh parsley
1 tbs chopped fresh tarragon (or substitute basil, oregano, sorrel or chives)
1 tbs white-wine vinegar or lemon juice
3/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup crumbled goat cheese

Steps:

  • Bring large pot of water to boil; cook pasta until just tender, 4-5 minutes or as package directs. Meanwhile place 1 tbs oil and garlic in large skillet. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until garlic is sizzling (2-5 minutes). Add sweet potato, bell pepper, tomatoes and water and cook, stirring occasionally, until bell pepper is tender-crisp (5-7 minutes). Remove from heat; cover and keep warm. Drain pasta, reserving 1/2 cup of cooking water. Return pasta to pot. Add vegetable mixture, remaining 1 tbs oil, parsley, tarragon, vinegar, salt and cheese; toss to combine. Add reserved pasta water, 2 tbs at a time, until desired consistency reached.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more spices.

This recipe was absolutely delicious! The sweet potatoes and red peppers were perfectly roasted, and the pasta was cooked al dente. The sauce was creamy and flavorful. I will definitely be making this dish again!
