SMOKED ALMOND PESTO SPAGHETTI



Smoked Almond Pesto Spaghetti image

Smoked almonds lend their signature salty, smoky flavor to this unique weeknight pesto pasta. The sauce is reinforced with smoked paprika for extra depth and brightened with a generous amount of fresh, herbaceous parsley. Peas are added to the pasta during the last couple minutes of cooking; broccoli florets would also work nicely. The versatile sauce can be doubled and stored in the fridge for about 5 days. It's great on roasted chicken, fried eggs or even potato salad.

Kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal) and black pepper

2 garlic cloves
1 1/2 packed cups/1½ ounces fresh basil leaves, plus more for garnish
