Pork Fennel And Butternut Squash Pasta Alfredo Recipes

FETTUCCINE WITH BUTTERNUT SQUASH ALFREDO SAUCE

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Cook fettuccine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes.
• While pasta cooks, combine cream cheese, butternut squash, butter, milk, garlic, and nutmeg in a large saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, until all ingredients are blended. Stir in Parmesan cheese and mix until smooth.
• Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Saute zucchini, yellow squash, and mushrooms until tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Drain pasta, toss with vegetables on a large serving platter, and pour Alfredo sauce over top.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH ALFREDO PASTA

Steps:

• Add the cream, butter, squash and 3/4 cup water to a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and continue cooking until the squash is tender when poked with a fork, about 15 minutes. Puree using an immersion blender until super creamy and smooth, 3 to 5 minutes. Season with the nutmeg and 1 teaspoon salt.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente according to the package directions. Reserve 1/2 cup starchy pasta water and drain the pasta. Stir the pasta and Parmesan into the squash sauce and toss until well coated. Add the reserved pasta water 1 tablespoon at a time if needed to loosen the sauce. Serve with more Parmesan and grated nutmeg, if desired.

EASY ONE-PAN PORK AND SQUASH DINNER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease a rimmed 13x18-inch baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Whisk 1 tablespoon olive oil, honey, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon sage, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a bowl.
• Place tenderloin on the prepared baking sheet; rub honey mixture onto pork.
• Mix butternut squash, apples, and onion in a bowl; drizzle with remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon sage, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper; toss until well coated. Place around pork tenderloin.
• Bake in the preheated oven until vegetables are tender and pork is cooked, 30 to 35 minutes; baste pork with honey mixture several times during roasting. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the pork should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

PORK, FENNEL AND BUTTERNUT SQUASH PASTA ALFREDO

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. Bring a large pot of water to a boil over medium-high heat. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Cut off the neck from the butternut squash. Trim the stem, then peel the neck piece. Cut the neck into quarters, standing it on the flat end as a base. With a mandoline or sharp knife, slice two of the quarters into 1/8-inch-thick strips. Save any remaining squash for another use.
• Put the squash strips on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of the oil and a large pinch of salt and pepper. Use your hands to rub the seasoning into the squash, and then arrange in a single layer on the baking sheet. Bake until the squash is just tender, about 15 minutes.
• Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat until hot, and then add 2 tablespoons of the oil. Swirl to coat, and then add the pork and a large pinch of salt and pepper. Break up the pork with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula and stir occasionally until cooked through and browned in spots, 8 to 10 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove the pork to a medium bowl. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, the mushrooms, fennel and a pinch of salt and pepper and cook until the vegetables are tender, 6 to 8 minutes, stirring frequently and scraping up any browned bits at the bottom of the pan.
• Reduce the heat to medium and add the heavy cream, Parmesan, garlic powder and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir to combine, and then add the pork back to the pan. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer and cook until the sauce has thickened slightly, to the consistency of a thin gravy, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• While the sauce simmers, cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions. Drain the noodles and fold them into the sauce. Gently fold in half of the butternut squash until just combined, and then fold in the remaining half, being careful not to break up the squash too much. Divide into bowls and garnish with microgreens.
