CREAMY CHIVE PASTA WITH LEMON



Creamy Chive Pasta With Lemon image

This recipe is a good way to showcase any fresh chives you may have. In the spirit of buttered noodles with chives - or stir-fried lo mein with Chinese chives - this recipe uses the delicate alliums as an ingredient instead of a garnish. Their gentle onion flavor adds freshness to lemon-cream sauce, which is not unlike a delicate sour cream and onion dip. You can use crème fraîche for more tang, heavy cream for an Alfredo vibe, or ricotta for a hint of sweetness. To use another spring allium like ramps, leeks or a combination, thinly slice and simmer in heavy cream (not crème fraîche or ricotta) to soften before adding the other ingredients.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

Kosher salt and black pepper
1 pound long noodles, like linguine or spaghetti
3/4 cup crème fraîche, heavy cream or ricotta
3/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan (1 3/4 ounces), plus more for serving
1 tablespoon fresh lemon zest plus 3 tablespoons lemon juice (from 1 to 2 lemons)
1/4 to 1 1/2 ounces chives, cut into 1-inch pieces

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup pasta cooking water, then drain the pasta.
  • In the same pot, make the sauce: Stir together the crème fraîche, 1/2 cup reserved pasta water, Parmesan, lemon zest and juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Add the pasta, return to medium heat, and cook, tossing vigorously, until the noodles are well coated, 1 to 2 minutes. Add more pasta water as needed to gloss the noodles.
  • Add the chives and stir until evenly distributed and slightly wilted. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Eat with more grated Parmesan and black pepper on top.

Tips:

  • Use ripe tomatoes: The sweeter the tomatoes, the better the sauce will be. Look for tomatoes that are deep red in color and have no blemishes.
  • Roast the tomatoes: Roasting the tomatoes intensifies their flavor and sweetness. You can roast them in the oven or on the grill.
  • Use a good quality olive oil: Olive oil is an important ingredient in Italian cooking. Use a good quality extra virgin olive oil for the best flavor.
  • Don't overcook the pasta: Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and unpleasant to eat.
  • Add the pasta to the sauce: Once the pasta is cooked, add it to the sauce and stir to combine. This will help the pasta absorb the flavors of the sauce.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as basil, parsley, or chives, add a pop of color and flavor to the dish.

Conclusion:

This spaghetti with sweet 100 tomatoes, garlic, chives, and lemon basil is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The roasted tomatoes are sweet and flavorful, and the garlic, chives, and lemon basil add a bright and fresh flavor to the dish. This pasta is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
