Recipe of Pasta Primavera

Ingredients:

  • 12 ounces pasta (penne or spaghetti works well)
  • 2 tbsps olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 red bell pepper, julienned
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, julienned
  • 1 zucchini, sliced into half-moons
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cup peas (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 cup asparagus, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • ¼ cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • juice of 1 large lemon
  • ¼ cup heavy cream (optional for a creamy version)

Instructions:

  • In your SENSARTE PASCA Nonstick Sauce Pan, bring salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  • Grab your SENSARTE Nonstick Frying Pan Skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat.
  • Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Add the red and yellow bell peppers, zucchini, broccoli, and asparagus. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
  • Add the cherry tomatoes and peas. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until heated through.
  • Reduce heat to low and add the cooked pasta to the skillet. Toss to combine the pasta and vegetables evenly.
  • If you prefer a creamy version, add the heavy cream at this stage and stir until well combined.
  • Season with salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Toss again to coat everything evenly.
  • Remove from heat and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh basil leaves.
  • Serve immediately, garnished with additional Parmesan cheese and basil if desired. Enjoy!
