Penne With Roasted Cauliflower And Garlic Bacon Crumbs Recipes

PASTA WITH CAULIFLOWER, BACON AND SAGE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Place the cauliflower on a sheet pan. Drizzle with 2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil, sprinkle with 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and toss to coat. Roast, tossing occasionally, until tender and browned all over, 20 to 25 minutes. While the cauliflower roasts, bring a large pot of water to a boil.
• Heat a large (12-inch) skillet over medium-high. Add the bacon and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp, 5 to 7 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Add the sage leaves to pan and fry until they begin to brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the sage leaves to the plate with the bacon. Drain all but 3 tablespoons of fat from the skillet (or add additional olive oil, if needed) and remove from heat.
• Add 1 tablespoon salt to the boiling water and cook the pasta until just al dente, reserving 1 1/2 cups of the pasta water. Drain the pasta and add to the reserved skillet; heat over low. Pour or squeeze the lemon juice over the pasta, along with 1 cup pasta water and the 1/2 cup grated Parmesan. Toss until the sauce comes together.
• Stir in the cauliflower, bacon and sage, adding a splash more pasta water if the pasta seems dry. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with lemon zest, and serve with extra Parmesan on the side.

PENNE WITH ROASTED CAULIFLOWER AND GARLIC-BACON CRUMBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F and put a pot of salted water on to boil for the penne. Spray 2 baking sheets with nonstick spray and arrange the cauliflower on one and the scallions and tomatoes on the other.

Remove and turn the pieces for even browning. Return to the oven along with the tomato-scallion tray and roast until the cauliflower is tender when pierced with a knife and the tomatoes and scallions begin to brown, about 8 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside. While the vegetables roast, add the pasta to the boiling water and make the garlic-bacon crumbs. Cook the bacon in a large pan until crisp. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Drain the excess fat from the pan, but don't wipe it out. Add about 2 tablespoons of olive oil and heat over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until soft, about 1 minute. Add the garlic and continue cooking until soft and fragrant, about 1-1/2 minutes (do not allow it to brown). Add the crumbs and cooked bacon and continue cooking for another minute, until the crumbs are very lightly toasted. Remove from the heat and add the parsley. Drain the pasta and return it to the pan. Add the roasted vegetables, drizzle with a little olive oil and and toss to combine. Add the garlic-bacon crumbs and toss again. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
