BASIL BUTTER



Basil Butter image

This stuff is great for just about anything! For a fancy presentation, use an ice cream scoop or melon baller to form the butter into balls. You can make plenty of this when basil is in season and store it for later use in the freezer. If you don't have a food processor, use your blender. Cook time is freeze time.

BASIL PASTA WITH LEMON GARLIC BUTTER SAUCE



Basil Pasta with Lemon Garlic Butter Sauce image

This delicious recipe features all the classic ingredients that you would expect in a Basil Pasta - lots of fresh basil leaves, Parmesan cheese, pine nuts, butter, garlic, and fresh lemon. It's an easy and quick recipe that requires only 7 ingredients and 30 minutes of your time!

Provided by Julia

Categories     Main Course

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 tablespoons salted butter (divided)
5 cloves garlic (fresh, minced)
1/2 lemon ((preferably Meyer lemon) thinly sliced)
8 oz pasta ((I used farfalle or bow-tie pasta))
1 cup Parmesan cheese (freshly grated)
4 oz fresh basil
1/2 cup pine nuts (lightly toasted)
salt and pepper (to taste (use black cracked pepper))

Steps:

  • Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons butter, thinly sliced lemon, and minced fresh garlic. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring a couple of times, until lemon slices brown and release juices and minced garlic is browned but not burned. Remove from heat and add 2 more tablespoons of butter. Stir until it melts. Remove lemon slices from the skillet.
  • Bring a large pot of water to boil. Add pasta and cook al dente according to package instructions. Drain pasta.
  • Add hot, drained, and cooked pasta to the cast-iron skillet with butter and garlic. Stir everything well.
  • Add 2 more tablespoons of butter and grated Parmesan cheese. Stir on low-medium heat for a couple of minutes to spread out the cheese among the pasta and melt it a bit. Remove from heat. Taste and season with salt.
  • Add half of the fresh chopped basil to hot pasta and mix everything well.
  • When ready to serve, top with the remaining half of fresh chopped basil, toasted pine nuts, and cracked black pepper.
