Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

12 ounces fettuccine (try spinach or a whole grain variety)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes, with liquid
1/2 cup thinly sliced oil-cured sun-dried tomato packed in oil
3 -4 fresh basil leaves, thinly sliced (or 1/2 to 1 teaspoon, dried)
1/4 teaspoon hot red pepper flakes or 2 -3 dashes cayenne pepper
10 -12 ounces slender fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Cook the pasta in plenty of rapidly simmering water until al dente, then drain.
  • Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large saucepan. Add the garlic and sauté over low heat until golden. Add the diced and dried tomatoes, dried basil, and red pepper flakes. Bring to a simmer, then add the asparagus and simmer over medium-low heat, covered, until the asparagus is tender-crisp, about 8 minutes.
  • Combine the pasta, asparagus, and sauce in a large serving bowl and toss well. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve at once, passing around the Parmesan to anyone who wishes to top their pasta with it.
  • To complete the meal: Make a simple salad with a vinaigrette. Serve with a good store-bought foccacia bread.

This dish was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it needed more seasoning.
