ORECCHIETTE WITH CHERRY TOMATOES AND ARUGULA



Orecchiette With Cherry Tomatoes and Arugula image

Orecchiette are formed by kneading the dough, letting it rest, then breaking off portions to roll by hand into long skinny ropes. These are cut into pieces, formed into rounds and given the classic cup shape between the index finger and thumb, then flipped inside-out to expose the slightly more textured surface that will "grab" the sauce.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Salt
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 cloves garlic, smashed
1¼ pounds large cherry tomatoes, halved
12 ounces dry orecchiette
2 cups, packed, arugula
Ground black pepper
½ cup freshly grated pecorino

Steps:

  • Start bringing a large pot of salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, heat 3 tablespoons oil on medium-low in a large sauté pan. Add garlic and allow to cook 10 minutes, until oil is fragrant but garlic has not browned. Remove garlic (save for another use). When water boils, stir in pasta.
  • Add tomatoes to oil in sauté pan, increase heat to medium-high and, when tomatoes start to shrivel and collapse, reduce heat to low and cook until softened but not shapeless, about 5 minutes. Stir a couple of times. Reserve ½ cup of pasta water.
  • Drain pasta and add to tomatoes, folding both together. Add some pasta water if needed for moistening. Fold in arugula and remaining oil. When arugula has just wilted, season dish with salt and pepper. Serve with a dusting of cheese.

TOMATOES WITH ORECCHIETTE



Tomatoes with Orecchiette image

Don't bother making this unless you have the most delicious, perfectly ripe and juicy tomatoes, as the dish depends almost exclusively on this one ingredient. You must make this with pasta that will catch the delicious juices. Orecchiette seems to do it the best, but farfalle, fusilli, and penne work well, too. Season the tomatoes with a pinch of salt as you chop to coax the juices from them.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 garlic clove, coarsely chopped
3 pounds tomatoes (combination of Roma and Holland, cut in wedges, and cherry and pear left whole)
1 sprig of fresh thyme
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup Chicken Stock to Make 1 1/2 Quarts, or low-sodium canned
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 basil leaves, stacked, rolled, and cut into fine strips
1 cup dried orecchiette, cooked al dente

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and fry until it begins to turn gold, about 1 minute.
  • Increase the heat to medium-high and add the tomatoes and thyme. Cook, stirring gently, until the skin begins to loosen from the tomatoes, about 2 minutes. Add the wine and cook 1 minute more. Add the chicken stock and simmer about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Remove the thyme and ladle the tomatoes into serving bowls. Garnish with the basil leaves and pasta.

One Pan Orecchiette Pasta image

Every year when it's time to go back to school I get inundated with requests from students to post recipes that are super-easy, cost pennies, and require a bare minimum of kitchen equipment.

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Pasta

Time 40m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons olive oil
½ onion, diced
salt to taste
8 ounces spicy Italian sausages, casings removed
3 ½ cups low-sodium chicken broth, divided, or as needed
1 ¼ cups orecchiette pasta, or more to taste
½ cup roughly chopped arugula, or to taste
¼ cup finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, or to taste

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onion with a pinch of salt in hot oil until onion is soft and golden, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir sausage into onions; cook and stir until sausage is broken up and browned, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Pour 1 1/2 cups chicken broth into sausage mixture and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Add orecchiette pasta; cook and stir pasta in hot broth, adding remaining broth when liquid is absorbed, until pasta is cooked through and most of the broth is absorbed, about 15 minutes.
  • Stir arugula into pasta-sausage mixture until arugula wilts. Ladle pasta into bowls and dust with Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.

Tips:

  • Choose the right orecchiette pasta. Look for dried orecchiette pasta made with semolina flour. This type of pasta will hold its shape better during cooking and will have a slightly chewy texture.
  • Cook the pasta al dente. This means that the pasta should be cooked until it is still slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and will not hold its shape well.
  • Use a variety of mushrooms. This recipe calls for a mixture of cremini and shiitake mushrooms. However, you can use any type of mushroom that you like. Just be sure to clean and slice the mushrooms before cooking.
  • Sauté the mushrooms until they are browned. This will help to bring out their flavor and make them more tender.
  • Use fresh arugula. Arugula has a slightly peppery flavor that pairs well with the other ingredients in this recipe. If you can't find fresh arugula, you can use baby spinach instead.
  • Add the tomatoes at the end of cooking. This will help to keep them from getting too soft.
  • Use a good quality brie cheese. Brie is a soft, creamy cheese that adds a rich flavor to this dish. Be sure to cut the brie into small pieces before adding it to the pasta.
  • Serve the pasta immediately. This dish is best served hot, so be sure to enjoy it as soon as it is ready.

Conclusion:

This orecchiette with mushrooms, arugula, tomatoes, and brie is a delicious and easy-to-make weeknight meal. The combination of flavors and textures in this dish is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy pasta dish, be sure to give this recipe a try.
