Pappardelle With Garlic, Oven-Dried Tomatoes, Herbed Goat Ch

I like a wider pasta like pappardelle with this very simple sauce, a combination of fresh and oven-dried tomatoes.

Type: Pasta
Courses: Main Course
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

1/3 cup 78mlExtra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons 45mlSliced Double-Blanched Garlic - (see recipe)
1/3 cup 20g / 0.7ozOven-Dried Tomatoes - (see recipe),
  Cut into large pieces
3   Tomatoes - peeled, seeded, (medium)
  And chopped
  Kosher salt - to taste
  Freshly-ground white pepper - to taste
12 oz 340gFresh regular or spinach pappardelle
4 oz 113gHerbed goat cheese - cut small pieces
6   Fresh basil leaves - (to 8) - cut into chiffonade

Recipe Instructions

In a 12-inch saute pan or skillet, heat the olive oil. Lightly brown the garlic. Add the Oven-Dried Tomatoes and the chopped fresh tomatoes and season lightly with salt and pepper. Cook until the sauce has thickened slightly. Adjust the seasoning to taste.

Meanwhile, bring a large stockpot of water to a boil. Add a large pinch of salt to the water and cook the pasta until it is al dente, about 1 minute for fresh pasta. (Cook packaged pasta according to package directions.) Drain the pasta and combine with the sauce.

After the pasta has been tossed with the sauce take a pair of tongs or a roasting fork and twirl the pasta in a mound on the plate. Pour the sauce over the mound and garnish with the goat cheese and basil chiffonade.

This recipe yields 4 servings.
