GRILLED SUMMER SQUASH AND TOMATOES WITH ANGEL HAIR PASTA



Grilled Summer Squash and Tomatoes With Angel Hair Pasta image

This is so simple and so good. I make this on an indoor grill, but it can be made on an outside grill or in a stovetop grill pan. This is adapted from a recipe in Everyday Food Magazine (#3), and the original recipe is pasta and cheese-less and also includes grilled chicken. Sometimes I also make it that way.

  • Grill the vegetables 3-5 minutes per side until they are slightly softened and browned (it takes more like 20 minutes total in my grill, so you may really need to experiment with cooking times).
  • Remove from grill and allow to cool enough for you to handle.

Pasta with Chicken and Squash image

This is a special dish that we enjoy often. A bed of noodles is covered with a creamy cheese sauce, tender squash and strips of chicken that've been stir-fired with flavorful herbs. It's delicious and pretty too! -Pam Hall, Elizabeth City, North Carolina

Categories     Vegetable

Time 35m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

10 cups water
1/2 cup olive oil
4 garlic cloves
5 medium zucchini (try to get long skinny ones, no more than an 1 1/2 inches in diameter)
1 lb angel hair pasta (capellini)
2 tablespoons salt
romano cheese, to your taste

Steps:

  • Put the water on to boil.
  • In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium high heat.
  • Peel the garlic cloves and smash lightly with the side of a knife to release some of the oils.
  • Add the garlic to the oil.
  • Wash and dry the zucchini.
  • Cut off the ends and use a peeler to make zebra stripes down the length of the zucchini (leaving some of the skin adds flavor to the pan).
  • Cut the zucchini crosswise into rounds a little less than 1/4-inch in thickness.
  • When the garlic has browned lightly remove it from the pan and carefully add in the zucchini slices in one layer.
  • Fry until a nice dark brown on one side.
  • Use tongs or two forks to turn them over. When they are brown on the second side remove them to your serving bowl.
  • Continue frying the zucchini in batches.
  • By now the water should be boiling.
  • Add the salt and then stir in the pasta.
  • Once the water comes back to the boil the pasta will be done in a minute or so.
  • Do not overcook; drain the pasta.
  • Empty the oil from the skillet and pour in the drained pasta.
  • Stir the pasta to coat with the oil and to pick up flavors from the bottom of the pan.
  • Put the zucchini slices on top and then slide the whole thing back into your serving bowl.
  • Serve with lots of grated Romano cheese.
