Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 oz Pappardelle pasta
- 14 oz Artichoke hearts (canned or jarred, drained and quartered)
- 1 cup Sun-dried tomatoes (packed in oil, drained and thinly sliced)
- 3 Garlic cloves (minced)
- 3 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 Lemon (zested and juiced)
- 0.25 cup Dry white wine (optional, substitute with vegetable broth if preferred)
- 0.5 cup Vegetable broth
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 0.25 cup Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 0.25 tsp Crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pappardelle according to the package instructions, until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, until fragrant.
Stir in the quartered artichoke hearts and sliced sun-dried tomatoes. Cook for 3–4 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Add the white wine (or vegetable broth) to the skillet. Let it simmer for 2–3 minutes, reducing slightly.
Pour in the vegetable broth and the juice of 1 lemon. Stir well and season with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes if using.
Add the cooked pappardelle to the skillet and toss to coat evenly in the sauce. If the pasta seems dry, add some of the reserved pasta water, a little at a time, until the sauce reaches your desired consistency.
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the lemon zest, grated Parmesan, and half of the chopped parsley.
Divide the pasta among serving plates. Top with the remaining parsley and additional Parmesan, if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
