BROCCOLI-WALNUT PESTO WITH PASTA



Broccoli-Walnut Pesto With Pasta image

Low in cholesterol and high in vitamins, broccoli packs this pesto with extra nutritional value. Using walnuts instead of the traditional pine nuts is less expensive, subtracts calories and adds fiber. Serve over whole wheat pasta, or try brown rice pasta for a gluten-free option.

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/3 cup walnut halves
1/2 cup packed fresh basil leaves, plus a few sprigs, for garnish
1 clove garlic, smashed
1 1/2 cups chopped raw broccoli florets and tender stems (about 4 ounces)
1/4 cup low-sodium vegetable broth
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, optional
Kosher salt
Juice of 1/2 small lemon (1 tablespoon)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano, Romano or grana padano cheese
10 ounces whole wheat or tri-color fusilli

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spread the nuts out on a small baking pan and toast lightly, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • Pulse together 1/4 cup of the walnuts and the garlic in a food processor; add the broccoli, basil, broth, nutmeg, red pepper flakes if using, 3/4 teaspoon salt and the lemon juice, and pulse until just combined. Slowly drizzle in the oil through the feed tube with the processor running and puree until a slightly chunky sauce forms, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Add 2 tablespoons of the cheese and pulse until incorporated.
  • Cook the pasta in a large pot of salted water according to the package directions. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid.
  • Toss the pasta with the pesto in the dry pot or a mixing bowl, along with some of the reserved cooking liquid. Add the remaining cooking liquid if needed and additional salt to taste.
  • Transfer the pasta to individual bowls and sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon cheese. Chop the remaining walnuts and scatter on top. Garnish with basil leaves and serve.

BLISTERED BROCCOLI PASTA WITH WALNUTS, PECORINO AND MINT



Blistered Broccoli Pasta With Walnuts, Pecorino and Mint image

The trick to creating deeply browned, pan-seared broccoli involves two things: high heat and no touching. Allowing your florets and stems to sear in an even layer, undisturbed, gives them time to blister without cooking all the way through, so they retain some crunch. While many pasta sauces are finished with starchy pasta water, this one isn't, since the hot water would strip the broccoli of that color and crunch you worked so hard to achieve. Instead, toss the cooked pasta in the skillet with the broccoli, walnuts and cheese. A drizzle of olive oil and a squeeze of lemon will provide any additional moisture you need.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Kosher salt and black pepper
12 ounces riccioli, fusilli or other short pasta
1/2 cup olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1/2 cup walnuts or pecans, chopped
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes (optional)
1 bunch broccoli or cauliflower (about 1 1/2 pounds untrimmed), florets roughly chopped and stalks peeled and sliced 1/4-inch thick
1 lemon, zested (about 1 teaspoon) then quartered
1/2 cup grated Pecorino Romano or Parmesan, plus more for serving
1 cup packed fresh mint leaves or parsley leaves

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente.
  • Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add the walnuts and red-pepper flakes, if using, and cook, stirring, until golden and fragrant, about 1 minute. Using a slotted spoon, transfer walnuts and red-pepper flakes to a small bowl. Season walnuts with a little salt and pepper.
  • Add the broccoli to the skillet and toss to coat in the oil. Shake the skillet so broccoli settles in an even layer. Cook, undisturbed, 2 minutes. Toss and shake to arrange in an even layer again and cook, undisturbed, another 2 to 3 minutes; season with salt and pepper and remove from heat.
  • Drain pasta and add to the skillet along with the lemon zest, cheese, toasted walnuts and half the mint; toss to combine. Divide among plates or bowls and top with remaining mint, more cheese and a drizzle of olive oil. Serve with lemon wedges, squeezing juice on top, if desired.
