Pasta with Caramelized Onions and Mushrooms image

Cooking onions and mushrooms slowly for a long time concentrates their flavor, which adds depth without a ton of oil. Pairing the onion mixture with whole wheat pasta isn't just a healthful whole grain choice either - the nutty flavor and sturdy chew of the noodles enhance the entire dish.

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 8-ounce containers sliced mushrooms (white, cremini or a mix)
2 medium or 1 large onion, halved and thinly sliced
1 teaspoon paprika
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
12 ounces whole-wheat spaghetti
1/3 cup sour cream
2 teaspoons white wine vinegar
1/2 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1/2 cup fresh dill, chopped
1/2 small bunch chives, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large Dutch oven or wide pot over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, undisturbed, until they are lightly browned and they start to soften, about 5 minutes. Stir well, then add the onions, paprika, remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally (more frequently toward the end), until the onions are golden and very tender, about 30 minutes, reducing the heat to medium during the last 10 minutes so the onions don't burn.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook as the label directs for al dente. Reserve 1 1/2 cups cooking water, then drain. Add the pasta, 3/4 cup cooking water, the sour cream and vinegar to the mushroom-onion mixture. Toss until the pasta is well coated and slightly saucy, gradually adding the remaining cooking water as needed.
  • Add about half each of the parsley, dill and chives to the pasta and toss; season with salt and pepper. Divide among bowls and top with the remaining parsley, dill and chives.

Number Of Ingredients 17

8 ounces dry pasta (I used Toscani-shaped pasta)
Kosher salt
1/3 cup extra virgin olive
1 tablespoon butter
2 shallots (minced)
5 garlic cloves (minced)
8 ounces Baby Bella Mushrooms (sliced)
8 ounces white mushrooms (sliced)
8 ounces portabella mushrooms (roughly chopped)
black pepper
1 teaspoon rosemary
3 tablespoons of tomato paste
¼ cup merlot wine
½ cup of grated Parmigiano-Reggiano (Parmesan)
½ cup packed parsley
1/3 cup chopped walnuts
Red pepper flakes to taste (optional)

Steps:

  • Cook the pasta to al dante in boiling salted water according to box instructions. Keep 1 cup of the pasta cooking water then drain the pasta.
  • In a large skillet, heat the olive and butter over medium-high heat, add the shallots and garlic and cook, tossing regularly for 2 to 3 minutes (manage the heat so that the garlic does not burn).
  • Add all the mushrooms and toss them around in the pan for a couple of minutes, adding another drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Season with a good pinch of kosher salt, black pepper and the rosemary. Cook the mushrooms for about 7 to 10 minutes, tossing occasionally, until they turn color and release their juices.
  • Add the tomato paste, wine and about ½ to 3/4 cup of the pasta cooking water. Cook over medium heat for about 4 to 5 minutes (this becomes your mushroom pasta sauce).
  • Add the cooked pasta to the mushroom sauce. Toss to combine. If needed add a little bit more of the pasta cooking water.
  • Stir in Parmesan cheese and finish with a sprinkle of parsley, walnuts and red pepper flakes. Serve immediately!

GARLIC MUSHROOM PASTA



Garlic Mushroom Pasta image

My mom used to make this for me as a kid. It is easy to whip up and can be modified. Change the veggies, add some bacon, use less garlic, whatever. Sometimes I've used one egg and stirred in some margarine (or butter or olive oil) but I like it best like this. This is sized as smaller servings, almost as a side dish size.

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons olive oil
½ large onion, diced
5 large mushrooms, sliced
8 cloves garlic, crushed
1 teaspoon olive oil, or as needed
1 (12 ounce) package spaghetti
2 eggs, beaten
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onion, mushrooms, and garlic in hot oil until onion is translucent, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; add about 1 teaspoon olive oil to keep spaghetti from sticking. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until cooked through but firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain and transfer hot spaghetti back to pot.
  • Stir eggs into spaghetti; allow heat from spaghetti to cook the eggs. Stir onion and mushroom mixture and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese into spaghetti over low heat until eggs are fully cooked and cheese is melted. Garnish with additional Parmesan cheese.
