Linguine With Olive Oil Parmesan Recipes

Steps:

• Cook noodles according to package directions until al dente. Drain but DO NOT rinse.
• In a medium sized skillet, heat 1 tbsp olive oil over medium-low heat.
• Add onions and cook until translucent and tender (about 10 min). Stir in the parsley, basil, thyme, and oregano.
• Turn the pasta into a large serving bowl and add the onion/herb mixture. Season with salt and pepper.
• Drizzle the rest of the olive oil generously over the entire dish and toss with the parmesan cheese until all is well combined.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of cold water to a boil over high heat, then salt it generously. Add the pasta and cook, stirring occasionally until al dente, tender but not mushy, about 8 minutes.
• While the pasta cooks, combine the garlic, olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and the red pepper flakes in a large skillet and warm over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the garlic softens and turns golden, about 8 minutes.
• Drain the pasta in a colander set in the sink, reserving about a 1/4 cup of the cooking water. Add the pasta and the reserved water to the garlic mixture. Mix well. Add the parsley and lemon zest (if using). Adjust seasoning, to taste. Transfer to a large serving bowl or divide amongst 4 to 6 dishes. Serve topped with grated cheese, if desired.

Steps:

• Put pasta into a microwavable dish large enough to give you a little room for stirring and tossing.
• Dot pasta with butter or drizzle with olive oil.
• Sprinkle Parmesan over top. Add plenty of fresh-ground, black pepper.
• Heat in microwave on high 3 to 5 minute at a time, stirring frequently, until thoroughly hot.
• Serve, passing the pepper grinder at the table.
• You can add 1-2 cups of cooked meat (chicken, turkey, and ham are all especially good), and/or 1-3 cups pre-cooked, chopped vegetables. I particularly recommend broccoli, zucchini, onions, and/or green, snap, or snow peas.

Steps:

• Bring about 3 quarts water to a boil and add linguine, stirring down so the pasta is completely immersed in the water. Add salt and cook until tender, stirring strands often, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain.
• Return pasta to the kettle it was cooked in, and add butter, olive oil, basil, pepper and 1/2 cup cheese, and toss to blend. Serve with additional Parmesan cheese on the side.
