I love mushrooms and I am a major carboholic. This great pasta dish takes care of both cravings in one meal. Ingredients:
8 ounces linguine, uncooked |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 cup onion, sliced |
1 lb fresh white mushroom, sliced |
1 teaspoon garlic, minced |
1 (7 ounce) jar roasted red peppers, chopped |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper |
1 1/2 cups small italian-flavored croutons |
1/3 cup parmesan cheese, grated |
Directions:
1. Fill a large saucepan with salted water and bring to a boil. Add linguine and cook until pasta is firm-tender, about 10 minutes.
2. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup cooking liquid. Set aside.
3. Transfer pasta to a large serving bowl and cover to keep warm. Meanwhile, in a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat olive oil until hot.
4. Add onion and mushrooms, and cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are tender and just release their liquid, about 6 minutes. Stir in roasted red peppers and season with salt and black pepper. Cook until heated through, about 2-3 minutes.
5. Add the reserved cooking liquid and pour over linguine. Stir in croutons and Parmesan cheese.Serve immediately.
