Time 25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 lb orecchiette
salt
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
10 ounces frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed of liquid
3 -4 ounces roasted red peppers, chopped (use a kind packed in olive oil)
4 ounces feta, crumbled

Steps:

  • Place orecchiette in plenty of salted, boiling water and cook according to package directions (approximately 9 minutes) until al dente.
  • While pasta is cooking, heat olive oil over medium heat in a saute pan and add minced garlic. Allow to cook for only about a minute (to soften). Add chopped spinach and season with salt and pepper (not too much salt, as feta will add saltiness).
  • Add roasted red pepper and cook over low heat until spinach and peppers are heated through. Keep warm over a low heat until pasta is ready.
  • When pasta is done cooking, add feta to the spinach mixture. Using a spider, take orecchiette from boiling water (reserving water) and add to spinach mixture on top of the feta. Toss pasta with mixture until thoroughly combined, then add pasta water (about 1/2 cup) until mixture is creamy and moistened.
  • Serve immediately.

I'm not sure why this recipe is called orecchiette with spinach, roasted red pepper, and feta. The spinach and roasted red peppers are barely noticeable.

I'm not a huge fan of spinach, but I really enjoyed this dish. The roasted red peppers and feta cheese helped to balance out the flavor of the spinach.

The orecchiette pasta was cooked perfectly, but the spinach and roasted red peppers were a bit overcooked.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning or a different type of cheese.
