CREAMY AVOCADO PESTO PASTA



Creamy Avocado Pesto Pasta image

The addition of avocado lends a lovely creamy texture to this pesto. The ripe fruit imparts richness to the sauce, while nutty roasted pepitas add a deep toasty flavor. If you can only find raw pepitas, simply toss them with olive oil and salt, then toast in a skillet over medium-low heat, stirring, until they start to pop and turn golden brown. Shower the dressed pasta with more crunchy pepitas for a nice contrast to the velvety sauce. Leftover pesto can be refrigerated for two days; press the surface with plastic wrap to avoid discoloration (any browned areas on top should be scraped off before using). The pesto also makes a tasty avocado toast, sandwich spread or crudité dip.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Kosher salt and black pepper
3/4 cup roasted, salted pepitas, plus more for garnish
1 small garlic clove
1 medium (ripe) avocado
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
3/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan (about 3 ounces), plus more for garnish
3 packed cups fresh basil leaves (about 3 ounces), plus more for garnish
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound fusilli or rotini

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  • Meanwhile, in a food processor, pulse pepitas and garlic until finely chopped. Halve avocado, discard the pit and scoop out flesh. (You should have about 3/4 cup, or 5 ounces.) Add avocado flesh, lemon juice, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to food processor and pulse until chunky.
  • Add cheese and basil to food processor. With motor running, drizzle in 1/2 cup water, then drizzle in oil until well blended, scraping down sides as needed. Transfer 2 cups of pesto to a large bowl. Refrigerate any remaining pesto for another use.
  • Cook pasta according to package directions until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water, then drain pasta. Add pasta and pasta water to pesto in large bowl and toss until pasta is nicely coated in sauce.
  • Divide pasta among 4 bowls. Top with more pepitas, cheese and basil.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing the grill grates
Zest of 1 lemon plus 2 tablespoons juice
2 1/4 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup pine nuts
1 cup loosely packed fresh basil leaves
1 cup loosely packed fresh parsley leaves

4-5 chicken breast tenders
olive oil (for brushing)
spices (for chicken)
1 lb penne pasta (or desired pasta)
1 tbsp salt
1 1/2 cups fresh basil leaves (packed )

  • Cut chicken into small pieces and set aside.

CREAMY AVOCADO PESTO



Creamy Avocado Pesto image

This creamy pesto is indulgent without being overly rich, thanks to heart-healthy avocado and just a touch of olive oil. Also, since it uses a fresh avocado for its creamy consistency, rather than pricey Parmesan cheese, it's less expensive to make than traditional pesto.

An extremely delicious meal: the crunch of pine nuts and the tang of sun-dried tomatoes combine with chicken and pasta in a heavenly pesto cream sauce.
