FETTUCCINE WITH SMOKED TOMATO SAUCE

Categories main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

2 pounds vine-ripened tomatoes
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 ounces bacon, diced
2 cloves garlic, sliced
1 small yellow onion, finely diced
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, optional
1/2 cup dry white wine
Small bundle fresh oregano
Small bundle fresh thyme
1 pound dried fettuccine
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Parmesan, for serving

Steps:

Prepare a grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the hot coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only to medium-high heat. Place a cooling rack over indirect heat. Place a heavy-bottomed saucepot over direct heat.
Slice the tomatoes in half. Drizzle them with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place the tomatoes on the cooling rack on the grill, cut-side down, to soften and take on some smoke while you make the sauce, 10 to 12 minutes.
Meanwhile, add a drizzle of olive oil to the saucepot along with the bacon. Cook, stirring occasionally until the bacon is crisp, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic, onions and crushed red pepper flakes if using and cook until the onions soften, an additional few minutes. Add the wine. Tie the fresh herbs together with a piece of butcher's twine and add to the saucepot.
When your tomatoes have begun to soften, remove them from the grill. Remove the skins (they will come off really easy), add the tomatoes to the saucepot and season with salt and pepper. Close the grill and continue to cook the sauce until the tomatoes fully break down and the sauce thickens slightly, about 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta 2 minutes less than the package directions. Using tongs, pull the pasta out and add it directly to the tomato sauce, along with 1/3 cup of the starchy pasta water. Mix to combine. The sauce will stick to the pasta. Remove the saucepot from the heat.
Add the butter and a drizzle of olive oil to the pasta and stir to combine. Add the basil and and stir again. Serve with freshly grated Parmesan over top.
(Alternatively, you can cook the sauce and pasta over medium-high heat on a stovetop.)

SMOKED TOMATO AND CHICKEN PASTA

Smoked Tomato and Chicken Pasta image

Smoked chicken is given a husky taste that complements the inherent sweetness of the fowl and brings a hearty note to the pasta it's combined with. The sweeter-smelling the wood used, the more alluring the flavor it leaves behind. Hickory or fruitwoods, maple, oak and alder chips, dried grapevine trimmings or herb branches lend a sweet, firm flavor to food cooked in a closed container above it.

Time 45m

Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1 1/2 tablespoons wood chips
2 chicken breasts, split, skinned but not boned
12 plum tomatoes, cored and halved lengthwise
1 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1 pound farfalle
1/4 cup fresh basil, cut across into thin strips

Steps:

Place the wood chips in the bottom of a stove-top smoker and place the chicken on the rack over the chips. Place over medium heat until the wood begins to smolder. Cover and cook until the chicken is cooked through, about 45 minutes.
Sprinkle the tomatoes with 1/4 teaspoon of salt and pepper to taste. Remove the chicken from the rack and add the tomatoes, cut side up. Cover and smoke until the tomatoes are soft, about 25 minutes.
Meanwhile, take the chicken off the bone and shred. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente, about 10 minutes. Drain. Cut the tomato pieces in half crosswise.
Place the pasta in a large bowl and toss with the chicken, tomatoes, remaining salt, pepper and basil. Divide among 4 plates and serve.

Tips:

Choose ripe and flavorful tomatoes. This will ensure that your sauce is rich and flavorful.
Smoke the tomatoes before adding them to the sauce. This step adds a delicious smoky flavor to the dish.
Use high-quality chicken broth. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the sauce.
Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken is best when it is cooked through but still juicy.
Add the pasta to the sauce just before serving. This will prevent the pasta from becoming overcooked.

Conclusion:

Smoked tomato and chicken pasta is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The smoky flavor of the tomatoes and chicken pairs perfectly with the creamy sauce and al dente pasta. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
