Number Of Ingredients 14

Coarse salt
1/2 pound orecchiette (ear-shaped pasta) or conchiglie (medium shells)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 medium shallot, minced (about 1/4 cup)
1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
8 ounces assorted mushrooms, such as cremini, shiitake, and oyster, stemmed and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
3 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/4 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (from about 1 lemon)
1/2 head radicchio, sliced crosswise into thin strips (about 2 cups)
2 ounces Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
Freshly ground pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta, and cook until al dente. Drain, and then drizzle with just enough oil to coat. Spread on a baking sheet, and refrigerate 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shallot and red-pepper flakes, and cook until shallot has softened, about 4 minutes. Add mushrooms, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add wine, and cook until reduced by three-quarters, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Add herbs, lemon zest and juice, and radicchio, and toss until radicchio has wilted. Add pasta, Gorgonzola, salt, and pepper; toss. Serve at room temperature.

The orecchiette pasta was a bit too al dente for my liking. I would have preferred it to be cooked a bit longer.

This recipe was a bit too rich for my taste. I think I would have preferred a lighter sauce or a different cheese.

I'm not a fan of mushrooms, so I omitted them from the recipe. The dish was still very good, but I think it would have been even better with the mushrooms.

This is one of my favorite orecchiette recipes. It's so easy to make and always turns out delicious. The mushrooms and radicchio add a nice depth of flavor and the gorgonzola is the perfect finishing touch.

I'm not a huge fan of gorgonzola, so I used a different cheese in its place. The dish was still very good, but I think it would have been even better with the gorgonzola.

This dish was easy to make and so delicious! I used cremini mushrooms and the radicchio added a nice bitter note to balance out the sweetness of the mushrooms and the creaminess of the gorgonzola.
