I have one plant that is growing, and that is my basil!! Yay for basil. So I'm looking for any basil recipes. And since I always need pasta recipes, I was excited to try this one. I loved the addition of soy to this one. It was very tasty for dinner, and tasty the next day when I ate left overs cold for lunch. I found the recipe at food.com.
- fresh pasta, enough for 4
- 2 medium portabella mushrooms, in 1/4 inch thick slices
- 2 cups cremini mushrooms, capped and quartered (button mushroom works too, go wild with your choice :-)
- 1/2 cup of packed fresh basil leaf
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled
- extra virgin olive oil (use the good quality one you've been saving)
- 1/2 cup sherry wine or 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 1 -2 teaspoon soy sauce
- shredded parmesan cheese
- salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Directions:
- 1 For sauce, heat heavy skillet.
- 2 Saute garlic cloves in 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil until coated and beginning to brown (about 1 minute).
- 3 Add mushrooms and sautee until juices begin to emerge.
- 4 Add wine or sherry (more or less depending on how juicy you want it to be) and soy sauce.
- 5 Coat mushrooms and cook for another minute or so.
- 6 Add basil and cook until leaves are slightly wilted.
- 7 Remove garlic cloves.
- 8 Add salt and pepper to taste.
- 9 Toss cooked noodles with a little bit of olive oil (the amount depends on how juicy your mushroom mix is).
- 10 Transfer to plates and top with mushrooms and grated parmesan.
