Sun-Dried Tomato Bow Ties
Ingredients
  • 4 tablespoons dried basil
  • 1 tablespoon minced pine nuts
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 ounces sun-dried tomatoes
  • 1/8 cup olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 (16 ounce) package bow tie pasta
Instructions
1
Combine the fragrant herb basil with toasted pine nuts and a small amount of olive oil in a compact bowl; temporarily reserve the pesto sauce.
2
Blanch the dried tomatoes from Italy for 30 seconds in boiling water. Drain them thoroughly and slice into tiny pieces.
3
Heat a moderate amount of olive oil in a substantial skillet over medium heat; add minced garlic and sauté until it reaches a golden brown color. Introduce sliced mushrooms into the skillet and cook until they become tender. Add the prepared pesto sauce, diced sun-dried tomatoes, a pinch of cayenne pepper, and salt; lower the heat to low and simmer the sauce.
4
Prepare a large container of lightly salted water to reach its boiling point. Cook bow-tie pasta in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until it reaches a tender yet still slightly firm texture, approximately 12 minutes; drain the pasta thoroughly. Combine the cooked pasta and sauce until well coated.
