Sensational Wild Mushrooms with Grape Tomatoes, Fresh Garlic over Bow Tie Pasta


I love this recipe! It's quick, easy and absolutely delicious. Another recipe for using up all those Jersey grape tomatoes.











Ingredients:

1 Lb or more of Wild Mushrooms, Shiitake, Oyster, Crimini, Sliced
6 to 8 Cloves Garlic, Chopped
1 Pint of Jersey Grape Tomatoes, Cut in half
1 Small Can of Chicken Broth
1/4 Cup or more of Grated Locotelli Cheese
1/4 to 1/2 Cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 Lb Bow Tie Pasta - Preferably Barilla
Salt and Pepper to taste

Directions:

Fill a large pot of water to boil for pasta, when water begins to boil, add salt.

In a large frying pan over medium high heat add 1/4 cup of olive oil. When oil is heated add the mushrooms stirring constantly until mushrooms are tender. You may need to add more oil if the mushrooms absorb too much. Toss in the garlic and saute for another minute. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Add the grape tomatoes to the mushrooms and bring to a slow simmer. Allow the tomatoes to cook for 5 minutes or until limp. Season tomatoes with salt and pepper. Stir in chicken broth. Reduce heat to low.

Add the pasta to the boiling salted water. Cook according to the directions on the box. When pasta is finished, drain well. In a pasta bowl pour in half of the sauce, add the drained pasta and toss well, adding more mushroom sauce until well incorporated.

Toss in the grated Locotelli cheese and mix. Serve Immediately.
