BAKED SPINACH-ARTICHOKE PASTA



Baked Spinach-Artichoke Pasta image

Toss spinach-artichoke dip with pasta, and it feels right at home on the dinner table. This recipe, which nixes the traditional cream cheese for a blend of salty Parmesan and heavy cream, is prepared on the stovetop and requires only 10 minutes of active cooking before it's slid into the oven. As with any baked pasta, the key is to cook the shells until pointedly shy of al dente and to toss them with a sauce that seems excessively wet, as the pasta will tenderize and the sauce will thicken in the oven. These ingredients skew classic, but there is infinite room to riff: Swap in chopped kale or mustard greens in place of the spinach, experiment with cheese combinations, stir in mustard or caramelized onions or top with crumbled bacon.

Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Kosher salt
8 ounces medium pasta shells
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
10 ounces fresh baby spinach, or frozen chopped spinach, defrosted and drained
1 (14-ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and roughly chopped
2 cups heavy cream (1 pint)
4 ounces grated Parmesan (about 1 cup)
Black pepper
4 ounces grated mozzarella (about 1 cup)

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high. Turn down to medium-high, and cook the pasta according to package instructions until 2 minutes short of al dente (the pasta will finish cooking in the oven). Drain and reserve.
  • Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium. Add the garlic and red-pepper flakes and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the spinach little by little until wilted, stirring frequently, about 3 minutes. Stir in the chopped artichokes.
  • Stir in the cream and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Stir in the Parmesan until melted. Remove from the heat then carefully stir in the cooked pasta, or transfer to a large bowl to mix together, if necessary. The liquid might appear wet and loose, but it will thicken up as it bakes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Transfer the pasta to a 2-quart casserole dish or individual casseroles or ramekins. Sprinkle with the mozzarella and bake until bubbling, 20 to 25 minutes. Broil until browned in spots, 1 to 2 minutes, if desired. Let cool slightly before serving.

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound dried fettuccine (see Cook's Note)
Two 14-ounce cans artichoke hearts, rinsed and drained
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more as needed
1 cup chopped roasted red peppers
1/2 cup kalamata olives, halved
3 tablespoons capers
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to the package directions for al dente.
  • Meanwhile, blend the drained artichoke hearts, 1/4 cup water, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a high-powered blender until completely smooth. Set aside.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large high-sided skillet or braiser over medium heat. Add the roasted red peppers, olives, capers and red pepper flakes and sauté until warmed through, about 2 minutes. Stir in the garlic and a drizzle of oil if needed. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the garlic is slightly softened but not brown, about 1 minute. Stir in the blended artichoke hearts, then reduce the heat to low.
  • When the pasta is ready, reserve 1 cup of the pasta water, then drain the pasta and add it directly to the skillet with the artichoke sauce. Add about 1/2 cup of the reserved pasta water and toss together until the sauce and water become a cohesive creamy mixture, add more pasta water as needed. Turn off the heat. Add the basil and parsley, toss to combine and serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh artichokes if possible. Fresh artichokes have a more vibrant flavor and a better texture than canned or frozen artichokes.
  • Trim the artichokes properly. To trim the artichokes, cut off the stem and the tough outer leaves. Then, use a spoon to scoop out the fuzzy choke from the center of the artichoke.
  • Cook the artichokes until they are tender. Artichokes can be cooked in a variety of ways, such as boiling, steaming, or roasting. Cook the artichokes until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
  • Use a good quality blue cheese. The blue cheese is a key ingredient in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality blue cheese that has a strong flavor.
  • Don't overcook the pasta. Pasta should be cooked al dente, which means it should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it.
  • Serve the dish immediately. This dish is best served immediately after it is made. The pasta will start to absorb the sauce and become mushy if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

Artichoke and Blue Cheese Fettuccine is a delicious and easy-to-make pasta dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The artichokes and blue cheese add a unique and flavorful twist to the classic fettuccine Alfredo sauce. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
