Curtis Stone's Dinner for Four Under $10.00 - the Aussie host of TLC'S The Take Home Chef serves up a hearty Italian dish. It is a tasty family favorite from his complete seven-day meal. Cooking should be chilled out says Stone (at home in Malibu). There shouldn't be too many rules. I found this in People Magazine, 08/10/2009 & featuured on . Ingredients:
20 cherry tomatoes |
2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil |
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil |
1/4 cup kalamata olive |
1/4 cup extra-fine capers |
8 ounces rigatoni pasta |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1/4 cup dry white wine |
8 ounces spicy salami (sopressa vicentina) |
1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh flat leaf parsley |
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
2. Place the tomatoes on a small baking sheet and drizzle with 2 teaspoons of oil.
3. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
4. Roast the tomatoes in the oven for about 8 minutes, or until they begin to split.
5. Remove from oven and set aside.
6. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil in a large, heavy sauté pan over medium heat.
7. Add the salami and cook for 30 seconds on each side until light golden in color.
8. Remove the salami from the pan and reserve.
9. Return the pan to the heat, add the garlic and sauté for 1 minute, or until tender.
10. Add the wine and simmer for about 3 minutes, or until reduced by about half.
11. Add the roasted tomatoes, olives and capers to the hot pan and toss gently.
12. Bring the mixture to a simmer and add the salami and parsley.
13. Meanwhile, cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling, salted water for 8 minutes, or until the pasta is al dente.
14. Strain the pasta and toss it in the pan with the sauce.
15. Season the pasta to taste with salt and pepper.
16. Transfer the pasta to plates, spooning any salami and tomato mixture from the pan around the pasta, and serve.
