Rotini With Salsa Di Limone Recipe Courtesy Giada De Laurentiis

GRILLED LAMB WITH SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• Stir the first 7 ingredients and 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes in a large bowl to blend. Whisk in 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper. Set the salsa verde aside. Place the lamb in a 15 by 10 by 2-inch glass baking dish. Rub the minced garlic, remaining 2 teaspoons of salt, 1 teaspoon of black pepper, and remaining 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes all over lamb. Pour 1/2 cup of salsa verde over the lamb, turning the lamb to coat evenly. Use immediately, or cover the dish and remaining salsa verde separately with plastic wrap and refrigerate up to 1 day.
• Spray the grill rack with nonstick spray and prepare the barbecue (medium-high heat). Grill the lamb until a meat thermometer inserted into the thicker parts registers 130 degrees F for medium-rare, turning occasionally, about 40 minutes. Transfer the lamb to a work surface and let rest 15 minutes.
• Cut the lamb across grain into thin slices. Arrange the lamb slices on a platter. Serve the remaining salsa verde alongside.

PIZZA DI ROTELLE

Steps:

• Preheat a broiler.
• In a large bowl, mix together the cheese, milk, salt, pepper and eggs. Stir in the cooked pasta, peas and spinach.
• In an ovenproof 10-inch nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium heat. Add the egg mixture. Using a flat spatula, gently press on the vegetables and pasta to form an even layer. Cook until the underside is golden brown, about 8 minutes. Place a plate, slightly larger than the skillet, over the pan. Using an oven mitt, invert the pan and place the pizza on the plate. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil in the pan. Slide the pizza back into the pan and cook for 5 minutes.
• In a small saucepan, stir the tomato-basil sauce over medium heat until warmed through, about 1 minute.
• Transfer to a serving platter and cut into wedges.
• Serve the tomato-basil sauce alongside or as a dipping sauce.

SPICY TOMATO SALSA

Steps:

• Put the tomatoes, cilantro, garlic, olive oil, orange juice, and red pepper flakes in a food processor. Pulse until the ingredients are combined but still chunky. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Transfer to a small bowl and serve with tortilla chips.
