Spaghetti With Garbanzo Beans Food

BEST CHICKPEA SPAGHETTI

Steps:

• Drain the chickpeas, reserving the liquid it came in separately.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and boil the spaghetti for 2-3 minutes less than what the package directions say.
• Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat and add the olive oil and garlic. Saute until the garlic is fragrant and cooked through.
• Add the chili flakes and swirl it around with the garlic and olive oil for a few seconds.
• Add the tomatoes and saute until they start losing their shape, and they are no longer watery.
• Add the chickpeas, tomato puree, and salt.
• When the pasta is 2-3 minutes shy of being done, drain it and add it to the chickpea sauce. Finish cooking the pasta in the sauce until it is done to your liking. If the sauce starts gets too thick, add some of the chickpea liquid in to thin it out.
• Finish the pasta by tossing in the plant-based parmesan cheese.

SPAGHETTI WITH CHICKPEA RED SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat the EVOO in a Dutch oven or large skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Add the rosemary, garlic, chiles, onions and some salt and pepper. Stir and cook for 5 to 7 minutes. Add the tomato paste, stir 1 minute, and then add the wine. To a food processor, add half of the chickpeas and the stock, and pulse into a fine chop but not a puree. Add the chickpea mixture to the sauce. Add in the tomatoes, breaking them up a little and add the remaining whole chickpeas. Reduce the heat to a simmer, and cook to thicken the sauce, about 20 minutes. Turn off and cool, then store for a make-ahead meal.
• Reheat the sauce over medium heat, partially covered, adding a little stock or pasta water to thin, if necessary.
• To serve, bring a pot of water to a boil for the pasta. Salt the water, and cook the pasta to al dente. Remove 1/2 cup of the starchy cooking water and add to the sauce, if necessary. Strain the pasta and add to the sauce. Toss to combine for 1 full minute. Serve the pasta in shallow bowls topped with cheese and parsley.

SPAGHETTI WITH GARBANZO BEANS

Steps:

• Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
• While pasta cooks, heat oil in a medium skillet. Saute garlic, onion (if using) and dill for 3 minutes or until onion is soft.
• Add spinach and garbanzo beans to garlic mixture. Stir until spinach wilts.
• Serve pasta topped with spinach mixture. Sprinkle with lemon juice and grated cheese. Salt and pepper to taste.

FUSILLI WITH GARBANZO BEANS

Steps:

• Cook pasta as label directs.
• Meanwhile, in 12 inch skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat.
• Add onion and cook, covered for 5 minutes, stirring often.
• Stir in garlic and oregano and cook for 30 seconds.
• Stir in beans, vinegar, salt and pepper; cook 5 minutes, stirring often.
• When pasta has cooked to desired doneness, remove 1 cup cooking water and reserve.
• Drain pasta; return to saucepot.
• Add spinach, bean mixture and reserved cooking water; toss gently to combine.
• Notes: I usually use the large corkscrew pasta istead of fusilli.
• Actually, I've made it with several kinds of pasta--whatever I have on hand.
• Even egg noodles worked fine.
• Strangely, fusilli was my least favorite pasta to make this with.
• Also, I use the chopped garlic that comes in a jar.
• And thawed, frozen spinach works fine--you'll need much less of the reserved water.

PASTA WITH CHICKPEAS AND BREADCRUMBS

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook as the label directs for al dente. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain the pasta and return to the pot.
• Meanwhile, mix the breadcrumbs, 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 teaspoon rosemary in a medium saucepan until coated. Cook over medium heat until the breadcrumbs are golden, 4 to 5 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Remove to a small bowl.
• Wipe out the saucepan, return to medium-high heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Add the red onion, garlic and remaining 1 teaspoon rosemary. Cook, stirring, until beginning to brown, about 7 minutes. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, until deep red, about 1 minute. Stir in the chickpeas with their liquid and the chicken broth. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly, 7 to 10 more minutes.
• Stir the chickpea sauce, parsley and cheese into the pasta off the heat; season with salt and pepper. Stir in the reserved cooking water as needed to loosen (the pasta will soak up the sauce as it sits). Divide among bowls; top with the breadcrumbs, more cheese, pepper and a drizzle of olive oil.

PASTA WITH GARBANZO BEANS

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, celery, garlic and bay leaf; sauté until onion is golden and tender, about 7 minutes. Add 3 1/4 cups broth, garbanzo beans, tomato paste and crushed red pepper. Bring to boil. Add macaroni; reduce heat to medium and boil gently until macaroni is very tender, adding more broth by 1/4 cupfuls if mixture is dry, about 15 minutes (mixture will be thick but some broth should remain). Season with salt and pepper. Discard bay leaf. Stir in parsley and 1 tablespoon oil.
• Ladle pasta mixture into 4 bowls. Top each serving with 1 tablespoon freshly grated Parmesan cheese.

SPAGHETTI WITH PANCETTA AND CHICKPEAS

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook as the label directs. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain the pasta.
• Meanwhile, cook the pancetta in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp, about 6 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
• Add the olive oil, garlic and jalapeno to the skillet with the pancetta drippings and cook until the garlic softens, about 1 minute. Add the chickpeas and cook, lightly smashing them with the back of a spoon, until slightly golden, about 4 minutes. Stir in the parsley and season with salt and pepper.
• Add the pasta, pancetta and Parmesan to the skillet along with the reserved cooking water; toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Divide among bowls, drizzle with more olive oil and top with more Parmesan.

SPAGHETTI ALLA CECI (SPAGHETTI WITH CHICKPEAS) - RACHAEL RAY

Steps:

• In a large pot, boil the water for pasta, salt it, and cook spaghetti according to package directions to al dente.
• While the pasta cooks, heat a large skillet over medium heat and add extra-virgin olive oil (3 Tbsp, which she describes as "3 turns of the pan") crushed red pepper flakes, and garlic.
• Drain the canned garbanzo beans, then put them in the food processor and pulse-grind them to a fine chop.
• Add chopped garbanzos to the pan and season with thyme, salt, and pepper then sauté for 4 to 5 minutes.
• Add starchy water from the cooking pasta and broth (or wine) and cook down for about 30 seconds, then stir in the crushed tomatoes. Cook until tomatoes are heated through, then adjust seasoning to taste.
• Drain pasta (do not rinse), and pour onto serving dish. Top with the sauce and toss with tongs. (Or you can add the drained pasta to the pan and toss with the sauce, then pour onto serving dish.) Top with parsley and some of the grated Parmiginao Reggiano cheese.
• Serve with remaining grated Parmiginao Reggiano and enjoy!
• Note: using about 1/4 cup minced shallots in this, and 1 to 2 cloves garlic (to taste), would be nice, too.
• Note #2: oh my, well! To the reviewer who said the following, please remember that this is someone else's recipe and not mine and that regardless of your objections it is still delicious. At no point does it claim to be authentic. " -- pasta e ceci does not use spaghetti! you use mixed broken pasta. It doesn't ever have tomatoes in it or wine, stock or thyme! This is a traditional southern Italian dish & for us this is quite offensive! You need to use a bunch of parsley you make the sauce using tap water making it very soupy then you add the raw pasta & cook it in the sauce adding more water if needed. This will give you the starch you need to thicken the sauce & make the pasta taste of the sauce. to make it in the manner described in the recipe is like putting jam on a hotdog!" In any case, I hope folks will try the recipe and decide for themselves whether or not they like it. :).

PASTA WITH SPINACH AND CHICKPEAS

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water with 2 teaspoons sea salt to a boil. Cook linguine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes; drain, reserving 1/2 cup of the water.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir garlic in hot oil until fragrant, about 1 minute. Increase heat to medium-high and add spinach, tomatoes, and garbanzo beans; cook and stir until spinach begins to wilt, 1 to 2 minutes more.
• Season spinach mixture with remaining teaspoon sea salt, marjoram, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Reduce heat to low. Stir drained linguine with the spinach mixture to evenly coat. Add extra olive oil or reserved pasta water to achieve your preferred level of moisture in the dish. Top with Pecorino-Romano cheese.

PASTA WITH CHICKPEAS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a well-seasoned skillet or nonstick saucepan (I used a dutch oven, so I could puree the sauce right in the pan using my hand blender), and saute the onions, garlic and rosemary on low eat until the onions are soft - about 10 minutes.
• Add the tomatoes and half of the chickpeas and cook for another 10 minutes.
• Remove the rosemary springs and discard. If you have a hand blender, puree the mixture until smooth. Otherwise, use a blender. Be careful not to burn yourself.
• Return the sauce to the pan (if you'd removed it for blending), add the remaining chickpeas, and add salt and pepper to taste.
• Meanwhile, cook the pasta.
• The original recipe suggests tossing the pasta and sauce together for serving, but we served them separately.
• Pass the feta and chopped tomatoes (if desired) at the table.

LEMONY PASTA WITH CHICKPEAS AND PARSLEY

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Add fusilli and cook until it is just shy of al dente. (It should be slightly underdone to your taste because you'll finish cooking it in the sauce.) Drain well.
• While the pasta is cooking, prepare the chickpea sauce: Place chickpeas in a large bowl and use a potato masher or a fork to lightly mash them; they should be about half-crushed.
• Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add garlic cloves and fry until they are golden brown, about 2 minutes. Stir in onions, rosemary, red pepper flakes and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are soft, about 10 minutes. Then stir in chickpeas and the cooking liquid, stock or water. Bring to a simmer and cook gently until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes.
