Pasta Primavera is one of the most popular of current trending foods in the world. It’s easy, it is fast, it tastes delicious. It’s appreciated by millions every day. Pasta Primavera is something that I have loved my entire life. They are nice and they look wonderful.
To get started with this recipe, we must prepare a few ingredients. You can have pasta primavera using 11 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you cook that.
The ingredients needed to make Pasta Primavera:
- Make ready 1 box mushrooms - 8 oz. size whole or sliced
- Prepare 1 medium squash - green
- Make ready 1 medium summer squash - yellow
- Make ready 7 sun dried tomatoes
- Prepare 1 extra virgin light olive oil
- Take 1 butter
- Prepare 1 herbs - dill and parsley
- Get 1 lemon pepper
- Prepare 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- Prepare 1 grated parmigiano romano
- Take 1/3 box mini penne pasta
Instructions to make Pasta Primavera:
- While preparing vegetables set a pot of water on high to boil for pasta.
- Wash, dry and slice mushrooms in half and then into 1/4" slices. Slice both squashes in half then in 1/4" slices. Slice sun dried tomatoes in 1/4" slices.
- In a large saute/fry pan (with lid) put about 2-3 tablespoons of oil and 2 pats of butter on medium heat. Once butter melts add mushrooms, herbs and lemon pepper. The mushrooms will absorb all the oil and butter - add more butter a pat at a time until mushrooms have a good coating of butter. Turn the heat down to medium/low, cover and cook about 3-5 minutes until mushrooms start to release their juice.
- Add a little more olive oil, a pat of butter and stir until the butter has melted. Then add squash and sun dried tomatoes. Season again with herbs, lemon pepper and add 2 tablespoons of fresh squeezed lemon. Stir to incorporate, cover and reduce heat a little. You want to cook the squash until it's tender but hasn't lost its color about 2-3 minutes. Then take it completely off the heat; especially if you have an electric stove. Keep it covered.
- While preparing the vegetables if the water has come to a full boil add the penne and cook as directed on the box. I use mini penne and it takes 6 minutes for al dente. Once cooked drain into colander. Turn the stove down to medium low, wipe dry the bottom of the pot and return it to stove add about 2 tablespoons of oil, a pat of butter and heat thoroughly. (If you like, add some red pepper flakes.) Add pasta, stir to incorporate - hint: the pasta should have a sheen, if it doesn't add olive oil a little at a time, stirring in between until it just shines. Once pasta is heated through (it doesn't take long - a mere few seconds) take the pot off the burner and add as much cheese as you want.
- Spoon penne, spoon vegetables on top and top with a sprinkling of cheese.
