Description

This Pasta Primavera is a delightful celebration of fresh vegetables tossed with tender fettuccine and a light, savory garlic-herb oil. The combination of broccoli, cauliflower, artichoke hearts, asparagus, and sweet cherry tomatoes creates a colorful medley that is both nutritious and satisfying. The dish is finished with a sprinkle of sharp Parmesan cheese, adding a rich, salty depth that ties all the flavors together. Perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a light summer lunch, this recipe highlights the natural sweetness of the produce. Its easy to customize with whatever seasonal vegetables you have on hand, making it a versatile staple for any home cook looking for a healthy yet comforting meal.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil and cook the fettuccine according to package directions until al dente.
  2. Reserve 1 cup of the starchy pasta water, then drain the pasta and set aside.
  3. While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  4. Add the chopped garlic, oregano, and basil to the skillet and saut for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
  5. Add the broccoli, cauliflower, artichoke hearts, asparagus, green peppers, and cherry tomatoes to the skillet.
  6. Saut the vegetables for 5-7 minutes until they are tender-crisp and heated through.
  7. Add the drained pasta to the skillet with the vegetables and toss gently to combine.
  8. If the mixture seems dry, add the reserved pasta water a little at a time until the desired consistency is reached.
  9. Remove from heat and toss with the grated Parmesan cheese until evenly distributed.
  10. Season with salt and black pepper to taste and serve immediately.
