Fettuccine With Fennel And Arugula Recipes

ARUGULA-FENNEL SALAD

Steps:

• Make the dressing by whisking the olive oil, salt, lemon zest, and lemon juice together in a small bowl; set aside. Place the arugula leaves into a large salad bowl. Sprinkle the fennel, pine nuts, grape tomatoes, and Parmesan cheese over top. Toss with the lemon dressing immediately before serving.

PASTA WITH ARUGULA AND TOMATOES

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain.
• Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-low heat and cook garlic until translucent and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add cherry tomatoes. Increase heat, cook, and stir until lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Remove skillet from heat and mix in arugula. Mix in cooked spaghetti and drizzle with olive oil. Serve immediately with Parmesan cheese.

FETTUCCINE WITH FENNEL AND ARUGULA

Steps:

• Rinse and drain the arugula. Tear the leaves from the stems and discard the stems. Set leaves aside.
• Cut the tops off the fennel bulb. Mince two tablespoons of the feathery green part, discard the stems and cut the bulb into very thin slices. Set aside.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the scallions and saute until just tender. Stir in the garlic. Add the sliced fennel bulb and continue to saute until the fennel is tender. Add the tomato and cook for about 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine, stir once or twice and cook two to three minutes after the water returns to a boil. Drain the fettuccine.
• Reheat the sauce. Toss with the fettuccine in a warm serving bowl and sprinkle with the minced fennel top. Serve with Parmesan cheese on the side.

ARUGULA AND FENNEL SALAD

Steps:

• Trim the fennel bulb and reserve the fronds. Cut the bulb in half and remove the tough inner core. Using a sharp knife or a mandolin cut the fennel into very thin slices and put them into a large bowl. Cut the onion into very thin slices and add them to the bowl. Add the arugula to the bowl and give it a good toss. Pour in the olive oil and lemon juice, season it with salt and pepper, and toss it again to coat all the ingredients; put the salad onto a large platter. Using a vegetable peeler, shave thin pieces of the Parmigiano-Reggiano and scatter them over the salad. Garnish with the reserved fennel fronds.

FETTUCCINE WITH PANCETTA AND FENNEL

Steps:

• Melt butter in heavy large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add pancetta and garlic; sauté until garlic is pale golden, about 4 minutes. Stir in 1/3 cup chopped fennel fronds, fennel wedges, fennel seeds and crushed red pepper. Cover and cook until fennel wedges are soft, stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes. Add cream; cook until reduced by half, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook fettuccine in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite, stirring occasionally. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup pasta cooking water. Toss pasta with fennel mixture and enough reserved cooking water to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Serve, passing Parmesan cheese separately.

SAUTEED FENNEL, CAPERS AND ARUGULA
