Spicy Broccoli Corn Pasta
Jul 21, 2024 02:53 AM
This is a great option when you want an easy pasta recipe that's light yet full of flavor. It has roasted veggies and a spicy kick that can be adjusted to your palate. Of course, it's perfect for fresh produce, but you can make it year-round with frozen broccoli and corn.
This is a recipe that saves the never-ending 'what should I make for dinner tonight' moment.
We love pasta for weeknights and Sunday lunch, an Italian tradition we keep, most of the time. During the summer, this is one of our favorites: simple to make, nutrient-packed and delicious with a hint of spicy.
Roasting the vegetables with olive oil, salt, and pepper deepens their flavor without sacrificing their crunch.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups dried pasta (cooked according to packet instructions)
- ½ medium broccoli, no stems, cut into chunks
- 1 and ½ cups corn kernels (from about 2 corn ears)
- 1-2 tablespoons harissa paste (or sriracha or other spicy red pepper sauce you like)
- ½ cup good parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley
- Extra virgin olive oil
- Salt and black pepper
- A drizzle of cream (optional but good if you like spicy and creamy)
Total Time:
60 minutes
