SPAGHETTINI WITH CRAB, ASPARAGUS AND SUN-DRIED TOMATOES image

Categories     Pasta

Yield 4 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 1/2 cups chopped tomatoes
3/4 cup sliced drained oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes
1/2 tsp dried crushed red pepper
1 pound asparagus, trimmed, cut diagonally into 1 1/2 inch pieces
12 ounces spaghettini pasta
8 ounces fresh crabmeat
1/2 cup mascarpone cheese*
1/4 cup thinly sliced fresh basil

Steps:

  • Heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and saute 2 minutes. Add chopped and sun-dried tomatoes and crushed red pepper. Cover and simmer until sun-dried tomatoes soften, about 5 minutes. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper. Cook asparagus in large pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Using 4- to 5-inch-diameter strainer, transfer asparagus to skillet with sauce. Return water in pot to boil. Add pasta and cook until just tender but still firm to bite, stirring occasionally. Drain. Bring sauce to simmer. Mix in crabmeat and mascarpone. Ad pasta and basil; toss just to heat through. Divide pasta among plates and serve. * Available at Italian markets and some specialty food stores.

This dish was a bit too fishy for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with a different type of seafood, like shrimp or scallops.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The crab and asparagus were good, but the sauce was a bit too heavy for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with a lighter sauce.

This recipe was delicious, but it was a bit pricey to make. The crab and asparagus are both expensive ingredients, so I wouldn't be able to make this dish very often.

This dish was a bit too complicated for me. There were a lot of steps involved and it took me a long time to make. I think I would have preferred a simpler recipe.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. The crab and asparagus were both very mild flavors, and the sauce didn't have much flavor either. I think I would have preferred it with some more herbs or spices.

This recipe was a bit too rich for my taste. The sauce was very creamy and the crab was a bit overwhelming. I think I would have preferred it with less crab and a lighter sauce.

I'm not a big fan of seafood, but I really enjoyed this dish. The crab was mild and flaky, and the asparagus was perfectly cooked. The sun-dried tomatoes added a nice touch of sweetness.
