Ingredients:
2 medium leeks, white and light green parts only, cleaned |
6 marinated artichoke hearts with stems (from a specialty food shop), or two 12-ounce jars marinated artichoke hearts in oil, drained |
3 tablespoons olive oil |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
3 teaspoons kosher salt |
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
1 pound linguine |
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan |
Directions:
1. Halve the leeks lengthwise and cut into 1-inch pieces. Halve the artichokes lengthwise. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat, add the leeks, and cook until soft but not browned, stirring frequently, about 5 minutes. Remove the leeks from skillet and set aside. Increase heat to medium and add the artichokes. Cook about 3 minutes per side. Return the leeks to skillet and toss to mix. Stir in the lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Cook the linguine according to the package directions, reserving 1/2 cup of the pasta water. Transfer to a large bowl. Add the vegetables to the linguine and toss with half the Parmesan. Add some of the pasta water to moisten, if necessary. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese. |
