ANGEL HAIR PASTA WITH PEPPERS AND TOMATOES



Angel Hair Pasta With Peppers and Tomatoes image

This simple pasta celebrates the end-of-summer harvest and is perfect for a light lunch or supper, or as part of a buffet. Bell peppers and other sweet peppers - like Corno di Toro and many other varieties of peppers of every hue - ripen in late summer, the same time as long-awaited flavorful (and multicolored) tomatoes, making their pairing seem almost preordained.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 garlic cloves, smashed to a paste
2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar, or a bit less, to taste

1/4 cup coarse toasted bread crumbs, for garnish (optional)
1 small bunch basil, for garnish

Steps:

ANGEL HAIR WITH BALSAMIC TOMATOES



Angel Hair with Balsamic Tomatoes image

This tastes like something I once had at Olive Garden, except I think they made it with fresh tomatoes. That limits it to a seasonal dish, since winter tomatoes, frankly, stink. Since this recipe uses canned tomatoes, you can feel gourmet at anytime. It goes together pretty quickly, especially after the first time you prepare it.

Provided by ThatBobbieGirl

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 35m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
salt
fresh ground black pepper
2 tablespoons dried basil, crushed (or twice the amount of fresh)
1 lb angel hair pasta, uncooked
parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Open the can of tomatoes.
  • Do not drain, but dump the whole thing in a non-metallic bowl.
  • Stir in the balsamic vinegar, black pepper, basil, and salt if you really think you need it.
  • Most canned tomatoes have enough salt for this, and if you're using no-salt tomatoes, its probably because you're not SUPPOSED to have the salt.
  • So drop the salt shaker, buddy.
  • Let the tomatoes, et al, stand about 10 minutes.
  • Sauté garlic in olive oil until translucent.
  • Do not brown.
  • Remove skillet from the burner, leaving garlic and oil in pan.
  • Set aside.
  • If you haven't already, put on a pot of water to boil for the pasta.
  • A big pot, so it has lots of elbow room.
  • People should stick together, not pasta.
  • Hmmm, that should be a commercial.
  • Drain the tomatoes, catching the juice in the skillet with the sauteed garlic.
  • Bring this to a boil and then simmer until the liquid is reduced by about 1/3.
  • It needs to do this in order to concentrate the flavors a bit.
  • While the liquid is reducing, drop the pasta into the boiling water, and cook according to package directions, just until al dente.
  • When the pasta is done, drain and keep hot if the sauce is not done yet.
  • Once the liquid has reduced enough, add the tomatoes, and heat briefly.
  • You want them to get HOT, not MUSHY.
  • Pour all this over the hot pasta and toss.
  • Serve immediately, nice and hot, passing parmesan to let everyone top their own.
  • This goes nicely with my Green Bean Compromise and a tossed salad with my Extremely Bad Breath Garlic& Green Olive Dressing, but serve what you like.
  • I won't mind.

GARLIC ANGEL HAIR SHRIMP



Garlic Angel Hair Shrimp image

This was inspired by one of my favorite restaurant pasta dishes. I keep the lemon separate until the end due to a picky family member, but you could add it earlier if everyone likes lemon. Do not use pre-cooked shrimp and don't overcook the shrimp.
