Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 9

12 ounces short curly pasta, such as gemelli or fusilli
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
3 anchovy fillets, rinsed and patted dry
2 cloves garlic, minced (about 1 tablespoon)
2 pounds zucchini (about 5 small), shredded with a box grater
1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes, plus more for serving
2/3 cup finely grated pecorino Romano, plus more for serving
1/4 cup lightly packed fresh mint leaves, chopped, plus more whole leaves for serving

Steps:

  • Cook pasta in a large pot of generously salted boiling water until al dente. Reserve 1 1/2 cups water; drain pasta.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Swirl in oil. Add anchovies and garlic; cook, stirring, just until anchovies break down and garlic turns golden, about 30 seconds. Add zucchini; season with salt and pepper flakes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until zucchini is very tender, about 5 minutes. Add pasta and 1 cup reserved pasta water. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until liquid is reduced and slightly thickened, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Remove from heat; stir in cheese and mint. Add more pasta water if needed, a few tablespoons at a time, until sauce evenly coats pasta. Serve, drizzled with oil and sprinkled with more mint, pepper flakes, and cheese.

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 garlic cloves, minced
3 tablespoons Sherry vinegar or white wine vinegar
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 1/2 pounds multicolored cherry tomatoes, halved (quartered if large)
3 ears corn, shucked
1 1/2 pounds medium zucchini
8 to 9 ounces dried egg pappardelle or dried egg fettuccine
1/4 pound sugar snap peas, strings discarded and peas halved diagonally
1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion (optional)
1 cup small basil leaves, torn if large
1/2 cup mint leaves
1/3 cup snipped chives
Accompaniment: Shavings of Parmesan made with vegetable peeler
Special Equipment
A good vegetable peeler, preferably V- or U-shaped

Steps:

  • Bring a 6- to 8-quart pot of well-salted water to a boil.
  • Meanwhile, mince and mash garlic to a paste with 1/2 teaspoon salt, then stir together with vinegar, oil, and 1 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Add tomatoes and stir gently, then set aside.
  • Cook corn in boiling water until tender, 4-6 minutes, then remove with tongs and cool.
  • While corn cools, peel lengthwise ribbons from 1 side of a zucchini with vegetable peeler into another bowl, stopping when you get to seedy core. Turn zucchini a quarter-turn, then peel more ribbons, stopping at core. Repeat on remaining 2 sides of zucchini (you will end up with rectangular-shaped cores). Reserve cores for another use (such as soup).
  • Cut corn from cobs; add corn to tomatoes.
  • Cook pasta according to package directions until al dente. Just before pasta is done, stir in zucchini ribbons and snap peas and cook 15 seconds. Drain pasta and vegetables together in a large colander and add to tomato mixture with onion (if using), then toss gently.
  • Add herbs and toss gently again.

Categories     side-dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup olive oil
3 zucchini, sliced into 1/3-inch-thick rounds
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan
2 teaspoons anchovy paste
2 tablespoons capers, drained
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 vine-ripened tomato, seeded and diced
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley

Steps:

  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add half of the olive oil and heat until it shimmers. Add half of the zucchini slices so they lay in one single layer. Cook until deep golden brown, about 4 minutes. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Flip each slice and cook an additional 4 minutes to brown the other side. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and continue with the remaining oil, zucchini and salt. Place drained zucchini on a platter and sprinkle with the Parmesan.
  • When all the zucchini has been removed, turn off the heat and pour off all but 1 tablespoon of oil from the skillet. Add the anchovy paste and break apart with a wooden spoon until it dissolves and smells toasted. Add the capers, oregano, red pepper flakes and tomato. Squeeze in the lemon juice and stir. Spoon the tomato mixture over the zucchini and sprinkle with the chopped parsley.

PASTA WITH ROASTED BROCCOLI, ALMONDS AND ANCHOVIES



Pasta With Roasted Broccoli, Almonds and Anchovies image

This no-fuss weeknight pasta makes marvelous use of basic ingredients found in almost every kitchen - and calls for some smart multitasking: Get the broccoli roasting while the pasta cooks, then create an easy emulsified sauce using butter, anchovies, red-pepper flakes, lemon juice and a splash of pasta cooking water. A sprinkle of toasted almonds provides texture and crunch. This dish is endlessly adaptable: Go for cauliflower instead of the broccoli (or a combination of the two); use parmesan or any other hard cheese in place of pecorino; opt for walnuts or pistachios instead of the almonds - or bypass nuts altogether and use toasted panko or breadcrumbs. If you don't have campanelle or fusilli, that's fine too. Any pasta with plenty of nooks and crannies to capture the buttery sauce will do.

Categories     dinner, lunch, weekday, pastas, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 pounds broccoli, cut into bite-size florets, stems cut into 1/2-inch slices
2 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 pound shaped pasta, such as campanelle or fusilli
1/2 cup chopped almonds
8 tablespoons unsalted butter (1 stick)
6 to 8 anchovy fillets, roughly chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
Grated pecorino, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 425 degrees. On a large sheet pan, toss the broccoli with the olive oil. Season generously with salt and pepper and toss again. Spread the mixture in an even layer and roast until crisp and lightly browned, tossing halfway through to ensure even cooking, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of well-salted water (2 heaping tablespoons kosher salt to about 7 quarts water) to a boil and cook the pasta according to package instructions until it's just short of al dente. Reserve 1 cup pasta water and drain.
  • In a large skillet over medium-low heat, toast the almonds, stirring frequently so they don't burn, 4 to 5 minutes. Set the almonds aside and wipe out the skillet.
  • In the skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the anchovies, garlic and red-pepper flakes and cook, stirring frequently, until the anchovies have melted into the sauce and the garlic is fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add 1/2 cup of the reserved pasta water along with the lemon juice and simmer until it emulsifies, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Add the pasta and toss to coat, adding more pasta water as needed. Stir in the roasted broccoli and gently toss and season to taste with salt and pepper. Top with the toasted almonds and serve with cheese, if you'd like.

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients in advance: Chop the zucchini, anchovies, and mint; grate the Parmesan; and cook the pasta according to the package instructions.
  • Use a large skillet or sauté pan: This will give you plenty of room to cook the zucchini and anchovies without overcrowding them.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you add too much zucchini and anchovies to the pan, they won't cook evenly.
  • Cook the zucchini and anchovies over medium-high heat: This will help them to brown and caramelize slightly.
  • Don't overcook the zucchini: It should be tender but still have a slight crunch.
  • Add the mint at the end of cooking: This will help to preserve its flavor and aroma.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best enjoyed hot, so serve it as soon as it's ready.

Conclusion:

This pasta dish is a delicious and easy way to enjoy zucchini, anchovies, and mint. The zucchini is tender and slightly caramelized, the anchovies add a salty and savory flavor, and the mint adds a refreshing touch. This dish is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal or a light lunch.
