CREAMY CILANTRO PESTO PASTA

Provided by Marie

Categories     Main Course

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb pasta ((500 g) any shape of pasta will work here.)
1/2 tbsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves (minced)
3/4 cup half-and-half ((12% fat) or light cream (20% fat))
2 cups cilantro (packed - you can add the stems, too)
1/2 cup roasted almonds
1/4 cup red onion (chopped)
1/4 tsp crushed pepper flakes (more or less to taste)
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
2 tbsp lime juice
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil and season generously with salt. Cook pasta according to package instructions.
  • While the water is heating and pasta is cooking, make the cilantro pesto. Place all the ingredients, except olive oil, in a food processor and pulse until combined and it looks like a rough paste, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed. While the food processor is running, pour olive oil in a steady stream and process until smooth.
  • When pasta is ready, save about 1/2 cup of pasta water (don't forget, it's important for the sauce!) and drain the pasta in a colander.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat, and cook garlic for 30 seconds or so, until fragrant. Pour cream and mix. Turn off the heat and stir in cilantro pesto. Add cooked pasta and toss to coat with the sauce. Add a little bit of pasta cooking water, a little bit at a time, until you reach a perfectly smooth texture. Taste and adjust salt as needed. Serve immediately.
