Grain Free Pasta Tricolore Recipes

THE BEST GRAIN PASTA DOUGH RECIPE

Steps:

• In the bowl of a food processor or stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, add the almond flour, tapioca starch, arrowroot starch, and salt, and mix until well combined.
• In a separate bowl, mix together the eggs, olive oil, and water. With the food processor or mixer running slowly, add the liquidsinto the dry ingredients. Continue running until the dough is asmooth ball. (Don't worry-you cannot overwork this doughbecause it's gluten-free.)
• Remove the dough from the bowl, and work in any remaining crumbs. This pasta can be rolled or extruded in a variety of pasta shapes. Use additional tapioca starch as needed to avoid sticking.
• Basic Homemade Noodles: Divide the dough into 4 equal portions, lightly wrapping unused dough with plastic wrap. Dust your work surface and rolling pin with tapioca starch and roll out the dough as thinly as possible. Cut using a knife or pizza cutter into noodles. Repeat for each portion of dough. (Use a dough scraper to pick up and move noodles.)
• Cook noodles in plenty of boiling, salted water. Noodles will be done in 3 to 5 minutes, depending on their thickness. I recommend taste testing your noodles for doneness, as opposed to following a set time. Drain cooked noodles and rinse with cold water to prevent sticking.

TRICOLORE PENNE PASTA WITH CHICKEN

Steps:

• Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup pasta water. While the pasta is cooking, heat the oil over a medium heat in a large, heavy skillet. Add the garlic and tomatoes and cook until the garlic is soft but not browned, about 2 minutes. Add the chicken and cook, stirring a few times, until just cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add the arugula, radicchio, endive, broth, salt, and pepper, and cook until the greens are wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Add pasta water, as necessary, for a wetter sauce.
• Combine the pasta and vegetable mixture in the pasta pot and toss to combine. Add the basil just before serving. Garnish with shaved Parmesan and a sprinkling of basil.
