Angel Hair Pasta Primavera
When in doubt, ROAST THE VEGETABLES. It magnifies the flavor of anything—broccoli! mushrooms! cherry tomatoes!—tenfold.
INGREDIENTS
12 oz. angel hair
2 c. broccoli florets
1 pt. cherry tomatoes (yellow and red)
1 (8-oz.) package baby bella mushrooms
1 15-oz. can artichoke hearts, drained and roughly chopped
2 tsp. garlic powder
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
3/4 c. grated Parmesan, plus more for garnish
Sliced fresh basil, for serving
DIRECTIONS
* Preheat oven to 400°. In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook pasta until al dente. Drain, reserving 1 cup pasta water, and return to pot.
* On a large baking sheet, toss broccoli, tomatoes, mushrooms, and artichoke hearts with oil and season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Roast until tender and caramelized, stirring once, 15 to 20 minutes.
* Add vegetables to pot along with Parmesan and 1/2 pasta water and, over low heat, stir vigorously to create a sauce. (Add more pasta water until you reach your desired consistency.)
* Garnish with Parmesan and basil before serving.
