10-MINUTE SUN-DRIED TOMATO PASTA



10-Minute Sun-Dried Tomato Pasta image

Dinner is ready in 10 minutes with this creamy sun-dried tomato pasta! I use my favorite all-natural sun-dried tomatoes, and I skip heavy cream in favor of a little whole milk and starchy pasta water for a lighter sauce, but you can definitely use heavy cream if you prefer! If you're not worried about keeping this pasta dish vegetarian, toss in some shredded rotisserie chicken or leftover Italian-style baked chicken breast or skillet chicken.

Provided by Suzy Karadsheh

Categories     Entree

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 ounces penne pasta or short pasta of your choice
3 to 4 ounces sun-dried tomatoes, (chopped, I used our all-natural sun-dried tomatoes which are bold and flavorful)
Extra virgin olive oil
2 small shallots, (chopped)
4 large garlic cloves, (minced)
Kosher salt
½ cup whole milk
½ to ¾ cup grated Parmesan cheese, (more or less to your liking (or a vegetarian Parmesan option))
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes or Aleppo-style pepper, (less spicy)
Fresh basil, (torn)

Steps:

  • Begin cooking the pasta. Fill a medium saucepan with plenty of water and season the water well with kosher salt. Bring the water to a boil and add the pasta. Cook according to package instructions, till al dente. Make sure to reserve some of the pasta cooking water before you drain the pasta.
  • While the pasta is cooking, work on the sauce. Heat 2 tablespoons of good extra virgin olive oil in a large deep pan over medium heat until shimmering. Add the shallots, garlic, and a good pinch of salt and cook, tossing regularly for about a minute. Add the chopped sundried tomatoes and cook for another minute or so, tossing until the dried tomato bits have softened a little. Add the milk and a little bit of the pasta cooking water (about ¼ cup) and cook for another minute or two until warmed through. Stir in the oregano and red pepper flakes.
  • Turn the heat off. Add in the pasta and Parmesan cheese, mix well to make sure the pasta is well-coated (if needed, add a bit more of the pasta cooking water). Taste and adjust the seasoning to your liking.
  • Finish with the torn basil and serve immediately!

Make and share this Penne with prosciutto, sun dried tomatoes & cream recipe from Food.com.

Provided by Vicki in AZ

Categories     < 30 Mins

Time 25m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup finely chopped yellow onion
3 ounces prosciutto, cut into thin strips
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil
1 3/4 cups heavy cream
salt & freshly ground black pepper
crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 cup freshly ground parmesan cheese

  • Very easy and quick!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dish. Look for fresh, ripe tomatoes and sun-dried tomatoes that are packed in oil.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. When you're cooking the prosciutto, make sure to give it enough space so that it can crisp up. If you overcrowd the pan, the prosciutto will steam instead of fry.
  • Cook the pasta al dente. This means that it should be cooked through but still have a little bit of a bite to it. If you overcook the pasta, it will become mushy.
  • Use a good quality cream sauce. You can either make your own cream sauce or use a store-bought sauce. If you're using a store-bought sauce, be sure to add some fresh herbs and spices to give it more flavor.
  • Garnish the dish with fresh herbs. This will add a pop of color and flavor to your dish.
