Ingredients:

Serving

3/4 lb orecchiette
4 tbsp unsalted butter
1 bunch scallion, thinly sliced
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
3/4 cup dry white wine
salt & freshly ground black pepper
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 (5 oz) bag baby arugula
6 large swiss chard leaves, stems and central ribs discarded, leaves coarsely chopped
1/4 cup mascarpone cheese

Directions:

In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the orecchiette until al dente. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup of the cooking water.
Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, melt the butter. Add the sliced scallions and garlic and cook over low heat until softened, about 5 minutes.
Add the white wine and cook over moderate heat until reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Add 1/2 cup of water and puree the mixture in a blender until smooth.
Season the scallion sauce with salt and pepper.
Wipe out the pasta pot and heat the olive oil in it. Add the arugula and Swiss chard; cook over high heat until wilted, 5 minutes.
Add the pasta, scallion sauce and the reserved pasta cooking water and simmer, tossing and stirring, until the sauce is thick, about 3 minutes.
Stir in the mascarpone, season the pasta with salt and pepper and serve.
