Rotini with artichoke, smoked salmon, and anchovies
Author Notes: This is another everything-left-in-your-pantry recipe, that ended up so good I have to write it down. I like to add chopped carrots to most of my 1 pot dish to add vegetable and subtle hint of sweetness. The range of amount in some ingredients means that if you like the ingredients, add more. —foofaraw
Serves 6
-
1
pound rotini pasta
-
1 to 2
pounds broccoli/kale, cut to small florets/pieces
-
4
tablespoons oil from bottled anchovies, halve
-
1
onion, dice
-
8
ounces carrot, chop to small pieces in food chopper
-
5
pieces anchovy fillets, cut to 1/2" length
-
0.5
cups grated Parmesan
-
1
teaspoon dried tarragon
-
1
teaspoon dried thyme
-
2
tablespoons balsamic vinegar
-
1
teaspoon black pepper
-
1.5 to 2
cups artichokes, cut to eights
-
12
ounces (1 pack) smoked salmon, cut to around 1x1 inch
- In a large pot, cook the pasta following the package instruction (I usually skip the salt). On 5 minutes mark before the pasta is done, stir in broccoli and cover the pot. Continue cooking until the pasta is al-dente. Drain.
- Set the pasta and broccoli aside . Stir in 2 tbsp of anchovy oil to keep them from sticking to each other.
- In the same pot, heat up 2 tbsp anchovy oil on medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook until wilted and start to caramelized. Add carrot and stir until the carrot soften a bit, around 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in Parmesan, tarragon, thyme, balsamic vinegar, and pepper. Stir in the pasta, broccoli, Stir and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
- Turn off heat, then stir in anchovies.
- If you want to serve everything right away, stir in smoked salmon and serve. Otherwise, keep the salmon aside. When heating up: after you heat up the pasta for serving, stir in the salmon (otherwise the salmon will be cooked through).
