Spaghetti With Crab Garlic And Mushrooms Recipes

GARLIC CRAB PASTA WITH MUSHROOM AND TOMATO- REDUCED FAT

Steps:

• Prepare noodles according to package directions. Set aside.
• In a medium non-stick skillet, heat butter and garlic over medium heat, until garlic begins to sizzle. Add mushrooms and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
• Add crab, tomatoes, basil, and wine. Stir gently to heat through.
• Add noodles and stir gently to heat through. Salt and pepper to taste. (Add more butter here if you want.).
• Stir in or sprinkle parmesan cheese, and serve hot.

SPAGHETTI WITH MUSHROOMS, GARLIC & PARSLEY

Steps:

• Bring 6 quarts of salted water to a boil in an 8-quart pot over high heat.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Scatter the garlic & crushed red pepper flakes over the oil and cook, shaking the pan, until golden, about 2 minutes.
• Add as many of the mushrooms as will fit comfortably into the skillet.
• Season lightly with salt and pepper and toss in the sage.
• Add the remaining mushrooms as the mushrooms in the skillet wilt and make room.
• Cook, stirring and tossing frequently, until the mushrooms are sizzling and brown, about 10 minutes. (If the mushrooms have given off a lot of water during cooking, you'll have to wait for that liquid to boil off before the mushrooms begin to brown.).
• Stir the spaghetti into the boiling wate; return to a boil, stirring frequently.
• Cook the pasta, semi-covered, stirring occasionally, until done, about 8 minutes.
• Add the stock to the browned mushrooms, bring to a boil, and lower the heat so the sauce is at a lively simmer.
• Cook until the liquid is reduced by about half, about 5 minutes.
• If the skillet is large enough to accommodate the sauce and pasta, fish the pasta out of the boiling water with a large wire skimmer and drop it directly into the sauce in the skillet.
• If not, drain the pasta, return it to the pot, and pour in the sauce.
• Toss in the parsley and bring the sauce and pasta to a boil, stirring gently to coat the pasta with sauce.
• Check the seasoning, adding salt and peppers if necessary.
• Remove the pot from the heat, stir in the cheese, and serve immediately in warm bowls.
