Linguine With Parsley And Garlic Recipes

GARLIC PARSLEY SPAGHETTI

BIG PASTA WITH MUSHROOM, PARSLEY, GARLIC AND THYME

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a saucepan, melt the butter for the bechamel, and add the flour, stirring gently to make a smooth paste. Remove the pan from the heat and whisk in the milk. Turn the heat back on to medium, and stir the bechamel until it begins to thicken and come to the boil. Let it bubble for about 5 minutes to get rid of the floury taste. Take off the heat and season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter and the oil in a large wide pan. Drain the porcini, reserving the liquid, and chop before adding to the pan with 3/4 cup chopped parsley, the dried or fresh thyme, and garlic. Stir for a couple of minutes then melt the remaining 1 stick of butter in the same pan and add the chopped mushrooms, stirring for about 5 minutes. The mushrooms will appear dry at first but will eventually start to give off some liquid.
• Add the porcini soaking liquid, which the mushrooms will largely absorb, but keep stirring and add the sherry and let it bubble away. Turn off the heat when you have a bronzed, syrupy stew.
• Stir the mushroom mixture into the bechamel and add 1 cup of the Parmesan and the other 3/4 cup of the chopped parsley. Put a big pan of water on for the pasta, and when it boils, salt it well. Cook the pasta until al dente, then drain and add to the mushroomy white sauce, stirring it as best you can to get the pasta covered.
• Turn into the large roasting pan and sprinkle over the remaining 1 cup of Parmesan. Bake for 30 minutes or until the top begins to turn golden in places.
• When the tin comes out of the oven, decorate with the remaining 1/4 cup chopped parsley and some sprigs of fresh thyme.

GARLIC-HERB LINGUINE

SPAGHETTI WITH OIL AND GARLIC (AGLIO E OLIO)

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of cold water to a boil over high heat, then salt it generously. Add the pasta and cook, stirring occasionally until al dente, tender but not mushy, about 8 minutes.
• While the pasta cooks, combine the garlic, olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and the red pepper flakes in a large skillet and warm over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the garlic softens and turns golden, about 8 minutes.
• Drain the pasta in a colander set in the sink, reserving about a 1/4 cup of the cooking water. Add the pasta and the reserved water to the garlic mixture. Mix well. Add the parsley and lemon zest (if using). Adjust seasoning, to taste. Transfer to a large serving bowl or divide amongst 4 to 6 dishes. Serve topped with grated cheese, if desired.

LINGUINE WITH PARSLEY AND GARLIC

Steps:

• In a 6-quart kettle bring 5 quarts salted water to a boil for linguine. In a 12-inch heavy skillet cook garlic in 3 tablespoons oil over moderate heat, stirring, until pale golden and transfer with a slotted spoon to a small bowl. To skillet add red pepper flakes, wine, and salt and boil until reduced to about 1/4 cup. Keep wine mixture warm. Boil linguine until al dente. Reserve 11/2 cups pasta water and drain linguine. Stir 1 cup reserved pasta water and parsley into wine mixture and add linguine, garlic, and remaining tablespoon oil. Toss pasta over moderate heat until combined well, about 1 minute, adding more pasta water if necessary to keep mixture moist. Serve pasta with Parmesan.

LINGUINE WITH GARLIC BUTTER PRAWNS

Steps:

• Boil the pasta following pack instructions. Meanwhile, very gently cook the garlic in the butter in a medium pan until softened. Add the prawns and cook until they just turn from grey to pink. It is important not to overcook them or they will be tough. Remove from the heat and stir in the zest and seasoning.
• Drain the pasta and toss into the pan with the prawn mixture and parsley until well mixed. Divide between two bowls and serve with the lemon wedges.

HERBED PAPPARDELLE WITH PARSLEY AND GARLIC

Steps:

• Set a large pot filled with 5 quarts of water over high heat, cover, and bring to a boil. Add 6 tablespoons fine sea salt or 1/2 cup kosher salt. Set a colander in the sink.
• Lightly dust a sheet of pasta with semolina flour, then loosely roll into thirds lengthwise, like folding a letter. Using a sharp knife, cut noodles in 3/4-inch increments. Shake off the excess semolina, and repeat with remaining pasta sheets. Form pasta into small nests (about 3 ounces per portion) on baking sheets lined with parchment paper and dusted with semolina.
• Add 4 nests of pasta to the water and stir. (Freeze the rest of the pasta for later use.)
• Set a large frying pan over medium heat and add the olive oil, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring, until the garlic threatens to turn golden, about 1 minute.
• Just before the garlic begins to brown, add 1 cup pasta cooking water and increase heat to medium-high. Let the sauce simmer until it reduces by about a third.
• Cook pasta until al dente, about 3 minutes, and drain, reserving another cup of pasta water.
• Add drained pasta to the pan and toss. Add parsley, and continue cooking over medium heat for 1 minute, tossing continuously with tongs. If pasta looks dry, add a little pasta water. It should be slightly wetter than you are comfortable with, because the pasta will continue to absorb sauce even after you pull it from the heat. Taste and adjust salt as needed. Remove from heat, and serve immediately with freshly grated Parmesan.

PASTA WITH PARSLEY SAUCE

Steps:

• Drop the pasta into boiling water and cook according to package directions.
• While the pasta is cooking, melt the butter in a saucepan, stir in the garlic and simmer until the butter turns a bit darker. Combine the parsley, Parmesan and pepper, mix well and reserve.
• When the pasta is done, drain it and put it into a bowl. Pour on the butter and toss lightly to mix. Add the parsley-Parmesan-pepper mixture and toss to mix again. Serve immediately.

LINGUINE WITH GARLIC AND OIL

Steps:

• Cook Linguine following the package directions.
• Saute sliced garlic cloves (Adding more garlic if you like)in olive oil, over medium heat until golden brown, remove garlic, and set aside.
• Add dry pepper flakes cook for an additional minute.
• Add parsley and salt, cook 1 more minute.
• Add cooked linguine, toss in garlic, arrange on heated serving platter, and sprinkle with black pepper.
• Serve with grated cheese and a nice loaf of Crusty Italian bread.

LEMONY PASTA WITH CHICKPEAS AND PARSLEY

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Add fusilli and cook until it is just shy of al dente. (It should be slightly underdone to your taste because you'll finish cooking it in the sauce.) Drain well.
• While the pasta is cooking, prepare the chickpea sauce: Place chickpeas in a large bowl and use a potato masher or a fork to lightly mash them; they should be about half-crushed.
• Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add garlic cloves and fry until they are golden brown, about 2 minutes. Stir in onions, rosemary, red pepper flakes and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are soft, about 10 minutes. Then stir in chickpeas and the cooking liquid, stock or water. Bring to a simmer and cook gently until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in pasta and parsley, and cook until the pasta has finished cooking and is coated in the sauce, 1 to 2 minutes. Quickly toss in cheese, butter, lemon zest, black pepper to taste and salt if needed. Drizzle with olive oil and shower with additional cheese before serving.

LINGUINE WITH GARLIC AND OIL

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt it. Meanwhile, combine the garlic, oil, and a pinch of salt in a small skillet over medium-low heat. Allow the garlic to simmer, shaking the pan occasionally, until it turns golden; do not allow it to turn dark brown.
• When the water boils, cook the pasta until it is tender but firm. When it is done, drain it, reserving a bit of the cooking water. Reheat the garlic and oil mixture briefly if necessary. Dress the pasta with the sauce and parsley, if using, adding a little more oil or some of the cooking water if it seems dry.
• Variations
• If you have a moderately well-stocked pantry-for example, if you have some olives, capers, chickpeas, dried chiles, canned tomatoes, and so on-you can make any of these delicious variations in less than a half hour.
• Add a couple of dried chiles to the oil along with the garlic. Discard before tossing with the pasta. Alternatively, sprinkle the pasta with hot red pepper flakes or pass some at the table.
• Add 1 cup cooked, drained chickpeas to the garlic-oil mixture about a minute before tossing with the pasta.
• Add 1 to 2 tablespoons capers to the garlic-oil mixture about a minute before tossing with the pasta.
• Add 1/4 to 1/2 cup minced pitted black olives (preferably imported) to the garlic-oil mixture about a minute before tossing with the pasta.
• Add a mixture of about 1 cup fresh herbs to the pasta when tossing it with the garlic-oil mixture. You probably will need more olive oil or some of the pasta-cooking water.
