Best Spinach Fettuccine With Sauteed Vegetables Recipes

SPINACH FETTUCCINE PRIMAVERA

Steps:

• Bring water for pasta to a boil. Salt the water add the pasta and cook to al dente, about 7 to 8 minutes. Use a vegetable peeler to make ribbons of carrot and zucchini. Keep the vegetables flat on counter and run the peeler the length of the vegetable. Drop the carrots and zucchini into the pasta water for the last 4 minutes of cooking time.
• Heat a medium skillet over medium heat with extra-virgin olive oil and butter. Saute the shallots and garlic 3 to 4 minutes then add peas and heat through, 2 minutes, stir in wine, reduce for half a minute and stir in stock. Toss drained pasta and vegetables with the sauce, season with salt and pepper, and combine with cheese and parsley.

FETTUCCINI WITH SPINACH

Steps:

• Toast pine nuts by tossing them over medium heat in a dry skillet until golden brown. Set aside.
• Heat olive oil in a heavy saucepan. Saute garlic until it barely begins to color. Add spinach and stir over medium-high heat until it has wilted and cooked down and excess liquid has evaporated. Remove from heat and stir in the cream, eggs and salt and pepper to taste.
• Bring at least 4 quarts of salted water to a boil, add the fettuccini and cook until al dente. This may take about 2 minutes and as long as 8 minutes, depending on whether the pasta is fresh or dried and how thick it is. Drain and toss with melted butter and place in a large, warm serving dish.
• Reheat the spinach mixture for a minute or two until slightly thickened and steaming but not boiling. This sauce must not boil or the eggs will scramble. Pour sauce over fettuccini, add cheese and toss to mix all the ingredients. Scatter pine nuts on top and serve at once.

SPINACH FETTUCCINE WITH SAUTEED VEGETABLES, ARTICHOKE HEARTS, AND SHREDDED MOZZARELLA

Steps:

• Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Drain, let cool to room temperature, transfer to a large zip-top plastic bag and seal. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the asparagus, carrot, mushrooms, and artichoke hearts and cook, stirring a few times, until the vegetables are crisp-tender and the mushrooms release their juices, about 5 minutes. Add the salt and pepper and stir to coat.
• If you're stopping here: Let the pasta and vegetables cool to room temperature. Transfer them separately to large zip-top plastic bags or containers and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze up to 3 months. There's no need to thaw before continuing.
• When you're ready to eat: Transfer the vegetables to a large saucepan and stir in the tomatoes. Set the pan over medium-high heat and bring to a simmer (or reheat both together in the microwave for about 3 minutes on HIGH). Add the fettuccine and simmer for 2 minutes to heat through (or microwave for an additional 2 minutes). Serve topped with the mozzarella.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Saute mushrooms and sausage in butter until mushrooms are tender and sausage is browned and crumbly, 10 to 12 minutes. Stir spinach into mushroom mixture and cook until heated through, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Stir ricotta cheese into mushroom mixture until well-mixed; add lemon juice. Pour mushroom mixture over fettuccine and toss to coat.
