Marinated Artichoke And Green Bean Pasta Salad Recipes

MARINATED-ARTICHOKE AND GREEN-BEAN PASTA SALAD

Steps:

• Cook pasta in a pot of generously salted water according to package directions. Add green beans to pot 4 minutes before end of cooking. Drain; transfer pasta and green beans to a large rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil; toss to coat. Let cool slightly.
• Drain artichokes; whisk brine and reserve 1/2 cup. Chop artichokes into 1-inch pieces. Transfer pasta and green beans to a large bowl. Add artichokes and reserved brine, parsley, lemon zest and juice, onion, cheese, and remaining 2 tablespoons oil; toss to combine. Season with salt and red-pepper flakes. Serve room temperature or chilled. Pasta can be made up to 4 hours ahead.

COLD GREEN BEAN AND ARTICHOKE SALAD

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil and add green beans. Cook until tender-crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain and transfer to an ice bath to stop the cooking process, about 5 minutes. When cooled, drain well and pat dry. Set aside.
• Combine blanched green beans, tomatoes, artichokes, red onion, black olives, beans, and parsley in a large bowl.
• Whisk together balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, garlic, salt, and pepper in a cup. Add olive oil in a steady stream while whisking until dressing has emulsified.
• Pour dressing over salad and finish with freshly shaved Parmesan cheese. Garnish with a sprig of parsley, if desired.

• Toss green beans and artichoke hearts in marinade. Cover the bowl and refrigerate 30 minutes (or until ready to use).
• Drain off as much of the marinade as possible.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet. Toss beans and artichoke hearts until heated through (about 3 or 4 minutes).
• Add 1/2 cup parsley and 1/4 cup chives.
• If using, add the chopped pimento (or sun-dried tomatoes) at the last minute for color.
• Serve immediately.

GREEN BEAN, ARTICHOKE AND RADICCHIO SALAD

Steps:

• Snap the tough stem ends off the green beans, then cut into 2-inch pieces or in halves. Meanwhile, bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil and season generously with salt. Add the green beans and boil until bright green, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain in a colander, rinse under cold tap water to stop the cooking and set aside.
• While the beans continue draining, slice the radicchio in half and cut out the core (the hard white part in the bottom-center). Cut each radicchio half into 2-inch pieces, separate the leaves and arrange on a large platter. Scatter the green beans over the radicchio. Drain the artichoke hearts very well, cut each in half lengthwise and arrange cut sides up over the green beans. (If making ahead, you can stop here, cover the platter and refrigerate for up to 24 hours, then proceed with Step 3 the following day.)
• Drizzle the salad with the olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper. Squeeze 1 lemon half over the salad and sprinkle with the oregano. Taste for seasoning, adding more salt, pepper or lemon as desired. Serve just like this or toss and serve.
