PASTA SALAD WITH ARUGULA AND SUN-DRIED TOMATOES



Pasta Salad with Arugula and Sun-Dried Tomatoes image

My family loves pasta salad during the hot summer months. It's a fresh twist on a penne pasta salad. You can substitute gluten-free pasta, if needed. The flavor is tangy and fresh. My husband, James, made this for our Mother's Day brunch as a side dish but you can add grilled chicken and enjoy it as your main course.

Categories     side-dish

Time 25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, rinsed, patted dry and minced
2 tablespoons minced red onion
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
Fine salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 ounces penne pasta
2 cups lightly packed arugula, torn
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley leaves
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 small cloves garlic, minced
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 ounce grated provolone cheese (about 1/3 cup grated on the small holes of a box grater)

Steps:

  • Toss the sun-dried tomatoes, onion, 1 tablespoon of the vinegar and 1/4 teaspoon salt together in a large bowl, then set aside.
  • Bring 4 quarts water to a boil in a large Dutch oven or large pot. Stir in 1 teaspoon salt and the pasta and cook until the pasta is al dente. Drain the pasta and rinse under cold water until cool. Drain the pasta well and transfer to the large bowl. Add the arugula and parsley and toss to combine.
  • Whisk the remaining 2 tablespoons vinegar, the oil, mustard, garlic and red pepper flakes together in a small bowl. Add to the pasta and toss until combined. Stir in the provolone and season with salt and black pepper.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This means using fresh, ripe vegetables, flavorful cheeses, and good-quality olive oil. It will make a big difference in the final dish.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. When cooking the pasta, be sure to use a large pot so that the pasta has plenty of room to move around. Overcrowding the pan will prevent the pasta from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the pasta al dente. This means cooking the pasta until it is just tender but still has a slight bite to it. Overcooked pasta is mushy and unpleasant.
  • Reserve some of the pasta cooking water. The starchy pasta water can be used to help thicken and flavor the sauce. So be sure to reserve about 1/2 cup of the water before draining the pasta.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment. There are many different ways to make farfalle with sun-dried tomatoes and arugula. Feel free to add other ingredients that you like, such as grilled chicken, shrimp, or roasted vegetables.

Conclusion:

Farfalle with sun-dried tomatoes and arugula is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick weeknight meal. With its vibrant flavors and colors, this dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a new pasta recipe to try, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!
