This week Health Tuesday I will introduce you to this awesome recipe. Make a delicious and healthy pasta in just one pan. No need to worry about cleaning up after cooking, washing many different pots and pans.
Check this one out.
For full recipe, please follow this blog Marin Mama Cooks. She is awesome ! This recipe is orginally taken from Martha Stewart Living
What you will need:
- 12 ounces linguine – I just used 3/4 of a 16-ounce box
- 12 ounces, which is about 3/4 of a pint of cherry or grape tomatoes, washed and halved
- 1 red onion, thinly sliced (about 2 cups)
- 4 cloves garlic, peeled and thinly sliced
- 2 teaspoons sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 2 sprigs basil, plus some extra torn leaves for garnish
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin-olive oil
- 4 1/2 cups water
- freshly shredded parmesan cheese for topping the pasta
Get out a large straight-sided skillet pan and put in your pasta, tomatoes, red onion, garlic, salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, basil sprigs, olive oil and pour the in the 4 1/2 cups water. Pretty easy right? You’re truly throwing everything into the pan at the same time. Love it!
Turn up the heat to high and bring the water to a boil.
Let the water come to a full boil. You will see bubbles on the side of the pan at first, but wait untill you see bubbles all over the pan.
Once your water comes to a full boil, set your timer to 9 minutes. Stand by the stove and using tongs, lift and move the pasta around every so often so that it doesn’t stick to the bottom of the pan.
You will notice that most of the water is evaporating and getting thicker, and everything is starting to cook down like the tomatoes and the onions.
Serve up the pasta in large bowls and top with some shredded Parmesan cheese and fresh basil. The basil leaves really add that extra punch of flavor, so be sure to top everyone’s pasta with a few leaves. Pair this pasta with a nice green salad or some garlic bread.
Have fun and have a healthy Tuesday :)
