Spaghetti With Arugula Rocket Parmesan And Pine Nuts Recipes

LINGUINI WITH ARUGULA, GARLIC & PARMESAN

Steps:

• Cook pasta al dente in a large stockpot of generously-salted water according to package instructions.
• While pasta is cooking, heat olive oil (or melt the butter) in a saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the sliced garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until it begins to turn just slightly golden. Remove from heat. (And if the pasta is not yet ready, transfer the garlic to a separate dish to prevent it from overcooking.)
• Once the pasta is cooked, drain it. Then immediately stir in the garlic and olive oil mixture, arugula, and Parmesan cheese. Toss until combined.
• Serve immediately, topped with extra Parmesan cheese (and toasted pine nuts, if using).
