TOMATO, BASIL AND CHEESE BAKED PASTA



Tomato, Basil and Cheese Baked Pasta image

For kids ages 12 to 16 years.

Provided by Rachael Ray : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound small shell pasta
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, 2 turns of the pan in a slow stream
3 large cloves garlic
1/2 small to medium yellow onion
1 (28-ounce) can crushed Italian tomatoes, any brand
1/2 cup, 10 to 12 fresh basil leaves, torn into small pieces
Salt and pepper
1 cup store bought basil pesto sauce
1 cup ricotta cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano, a couple of handfuls
1/2 pound fresh mozzarella

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt the water. Add small shell pasta and cook the pasta to al dente doneness which means that the pasta will still have a bite to it or be a little chewy. The pasta will soak up more juice and keep on cooking after we drain it, so we need it to be a little under cooked. The shells will probably cook about 9 or 10 minutes.
  • Preheat a deep, big skillet or a medium sauce pot over medium heat.
  • Place garlic on the cutting board and place the flat of your knife on top of each clove. Carefully give the garlic a whack with the palm of your hand to separate the cloves from the skins. Throw out the skins and chop up the garlic. Remember to keep your fingers curled under and the edge of your sharp, chef's knife tilted slightly away from your body.
  • Add extra-virgin olive oil to the pan by pouring a slow stream of it twice-around-the-pan. This will be about 2 tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil just enough to coat the bottom of the pan. Do not let the oil pour out too fast. You are looking for a slow, steady stream. Add the garlic to the oil. To chop the onion, cut the ends off and cut the whole onion down the center. Wrap half and save it. Cut the other half into thin slices then twist the slices a quarter turn and chop them again. Hold the tip of knife on the cutting board and lift the back of the knife up and down over the onion to make the pieces really small. Add the chopped up onion to the garlic and oil. Cook, stirring a lot, 5 minutes until the onions are mushy and look cooked.
  • Add the tomatoes to the onions and stir. When the tomatoes come to a bubble, reduce the heat under the sauce to low. Stir in basil pieces to wilt them. Season the sauce with salt and peppe, to your taste.
  • Preheat your broiler to high and place a rack in the center of the oven.
  • Drain pasta shells. Add them to a flameproof casserole dish. Add pesto sauce, 1 cup of ricotta cheese and a handful of grated Parmigiano, too. Stir carefully and coat the hot pasta with the pesto and cheeses. Pour the hot tomato and basil sauce over the pasta, as much as you like. You can always serve a little extra at the table, to pass around. Shred up some mozzarella cheese with a grater and scatter it over the pasta. Add a final sprinkle of Parmigiano to the mozzarella as well. Place the casserole under the broiler in the middle of oven, 10 to 12 inches from the heat. Let the cheese melt and bubble on top, 3 to 5 minutes.

20-MINUTE TOMATO PESTO PASTA



20-Minute Tomato Pesto Pasta image

Provided by Mel

Categories     20-minute or less

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup slivered almonds
10 to 12 ounces cherry or grape tomatoes (about 2 to 3 cups)
1/2 cup packed fresh basil leaves
1 medium garlic clove (chopped)
1/2 teaspoon red wine vinegar
Pinch of red pepper flakes
3/4 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound linguine or spaghetti noodles
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese (plus more for serving (optional))
Fresh basil for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the noodles according to package directions.
  • While the noodles are boiling, toast the almonds in a nonstick skillet over medium heat, stirring constantly, until lightly golden and fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
  • In a food processor, combine the almonds, tomatoes, fresh basil, garlic, red wine vinegar, red pepper flakes, and salt. Process for 1 minute. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and process again until the mixture is mostly smooth (there will be small bits of almonds but everything else should be pretty smooth). With the food processor running, slowly pour in the olive oil and mix for 20-30 seconds. Set aside.
  • Drain the noodles and return to the pot.
  • Pour over the pesto sauce, add the Parmesan cheese, and toss to combine.
  • Serve immediately with extra Parmesan and fresh basil, if desired.

TOMATO PESTO



Tomato Pesto image

Chef Note: This is a great sauce for pasta salad because it's delicious at room temperature. You could also slather it on bruschetta, grilled fish or chicken. Or make a brunch dish by topping a thick slice of toast with proscuitto, a poached egg and a little of this summer pesto. In summer, when you can get your hands on vine-ripe tomatoes, you don't even need to peel them. To intensify the flavor, you can add a few oven-dried tomatoes. The pesto keeps several days in a tightly sealed container in the refrigerator.

1 cup freshly grated Parmesan
