ASPARAGUS PASTA SALAD WITH A CREAMY LEMON DRESSING



Asparagus Pasta Salad With a Creamy Lemon Dressing image

A nice twist on asparagus and pasta salad. A quick easy dish with a light lemony, tangy sauce, but very fast. Pair this along a grilled piece of fish or chicken breast and this makes this a very nice easy dinner.

Categories     Penne

Time 35m

Yield 6 , 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

10 ounces penne pasta
2 lbs asparagus (ends removed and cut in 2-inch pieces on a angle)
1/2 cup scallion, cut on a angle in 1-inch pieces
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, grated (I like sharp cheddar)
1 tablespoon kosher salt (to cook the pasta in)
1/2 lemon, thin sliced
4 tablespoons mayonnaise
4 tablespoons chicken broth
2 tablespoons lemon juice
3 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon kosher salt, the dish (to season)

Steps:

  • Dressing -- mix all the ingredients and set to the side until the pasta and asparagus are cooked.
  • Salad -- In a large pot of salted water, boil the pasta according to directions. Approximately 3 minutes before the pasta is done, add the asparagus until is comes out al dente. Now drain the pasta and asparagus. Rinse under cold water for just a few seconds to stop the cooking process and cool slightly.
  • Combine -- Now toss the still slightly warm pasta with the dressing. Add in the scallions, extra salt and pepper and serve garnished with the cheese fresh lemon slices. A nice simple salad!
  • Now this is a very light tasting salad with a very simple dressing. It doesn't have bold flavors, but subtle flavors which is a nice compliment to a fresh herb roasted chicken breast or piece of fish. This is all about fresh subtle flavors.

LEMON, GARLIC, AND ASPARAGUS WARM CAPRESE PASTA SALAD



Lemon, Garlic, and Asparagus Warm Caprese Pasta Salad image

There are so many reasons I love this recipe. Caprese salad has to be one of my favorite summertime treats. There is nothing like a summer tomatoes' sweetness mixed with the peppery sweetness fresh basil offers, the zing of lemon and richness of garlic. It is SO good.

Time 40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound mezze (short) penne pasta
1 bunch fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into thirds
¼ cup olive oil
3 tablespoons butter
2 teaspoons lemon juice, or more to taste
½ large shallot, minced
2 large cloves garlic, minced
1 large grilled chicken breast, sliced thinly and halved
1 roma (plum) tomato, diced
8 leaves fresh basil, torn

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a boil. Stir in penne and return to a boil. Cook pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until cooked through but still firm to the bite, about 11 minutes; drain.
