Whole Wheat Penne With Tomatoes And Red Onion Recipes

Steps:

• On a rimmed baking sheet, toss tomatoes with onion, oil, and red-pepper flakes; season, and top with pancetta. Roast at 450 degrees until tomatoes burst, 20 minutes, rotating pan once. Cook pound penne, reserving 1/4 cup pasta water. Toss penne with tomato mixture, parsley, and pasta water; season.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler. Toss tomatoes and onion with 2 teaspoons oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and the red-pepper flakes. Broil on a rimmed baking sheet until tomatoes are just starting to brown, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain pasta, reserving 1/2 cup cooking water.
• Toss warm pasta with garlic, remaining 2 teaspoons oil, and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Stir in tomato mixture and the oregano. Add 1/4 cup reserved cooking water to moisten; stir in remaining water as needed. Divide pasta among 4 bowls, and stir 1 tablespoon ricotta into each.

Steps:

• In a large pasta bowl, toss together the tomatoes, minced garlic, salt, pepper, olive oil, and mint or basil. Allow to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to an hour. Taste and adjust seasonings.
• Meanwhile shell the beans and combine with the onion, water, the crushed garlic cloves, bouquet garni and salt to taste in a heavy saucepan or soup pot. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, cover and simmer 45 minutes, or until the beans are tender. Taste and adjust salt. Remove and discard the onion, the bouquet garni and the garlic cloves. Drain though a colander set over a bowl. Stir the beans into the tomato mixture.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil, salt generously and add the pasta. Cook al dente, drain and toss with the tomatoes and beans. If desired add about 1/4 cup of the bean broth. Add the feta cheese, toss again and serve at once.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Combine tomatoes, 2 tablespoons oil, and oregano in small bowl; toss to blend. Place tomatoes on baking sheet. Roast until beginning to dry and wrinkle, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted water until tender but still firm to bite, stirring occasionally. Drain pasta; let stand in colander.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in same pot over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms, onions, and garlic and sauté until mushrooms are tender and brown, about 10 minutes. Transfer mushroom mixture to medium bowl. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in same pot over medium-high heat. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Add chicken to pot and sauté until brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add mushroom mixture and roasted tomatoes to pot. Add penne, feta, Parmesan, chicken broth, and wine; toss until heated through and sauce coats pasta, about 4 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
