Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 cup fresh mint leaves
1/2 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
1/4 cup plus 4 tsp unsalted, shelled dry-roasted pistachios, divided
3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
5/8 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 large garlic clove
1 (9-oz) package refrigerated fettuccine
12 cherry tomatoes, halved
1 oz fresh pecorino romano cheese, shaved (about 1/4 cup)

Directions:

Combine mint leaves, parsley leaves, 1/4 cup pistachios, olive oil, kosher salt, ground black pepper, and garlic in a mini food processor; pulse mixture until coarsely chopped.
Cook fettuccine according to the package directions, omitting salt and fat. Drain fettuccine over a bowl, reserving 1/4 cup of the cooking liquid. Combine pesto mixture and reserved cooking liquid in a large bowl, stirring with a whisk. Add pasta to bowl; toss well to coat. Gently fold in cherry tomatoes. Coarsely chop remaining 4 teaspoons pistachios. Top pasta evenly with pecorino Romano cheese and chopped pistachios.
