Popping in today to share one of the easiest, quickest and yummiest, pasta dishes. It is comfort pasta to the max yet tastes like it might be from a fancy shmancy restaurant. Enjoy and have a fantabulous weekend!
Ingredients:
16 oz Bucatini Pasta
3/4 Olive Oil
1 Cup Chicken Broth
1 1/2 Cups sliced Mushrooms
3/4 of an Asparagus bundle – Bite size chopped
3 Tbsp finely chopped or shredded garlic
1 Tbsp Fresh Basil
Garlic Salt to taste
Salt + Pepper to taste
Fresh Parmesan cheese to grate over pasta
Cook Bucatini according to package.
In a large skillet on med-high heat, add your Olive Oil, Garlic. Stir around for just a minute to make sure the garlic gets distributed. Add in your mushrooms and sprinkle your garlic salt over them to taste. Yummy!
Add in your Asparagus let cook stirring 5 minutes or until veggies are cooked to your liking. Add in your fresh basil and chicken broth. Cook stirring for another 5 minutes to let all the flavors meld together.
Add your drained Bucatini to the garlic veggie mixtures and stir around until pasta in thoroughly coated with goodness. Salt & pepper to taste. Side note: When I drain the pasta, I always hold back a cup of pasta water incase needed for the sauce. It might be necessary if you substitute the Bucatini for another pasta such as angel hair. However, I’m obsessed with the Bucatini and never need the pasta water. 🙂
Pile onto a plate a grate some fresh parmesan over the top. Chow down!
