Skillet Pasta One Dish Wonder

Fresh noodles make simple dinner truly memorable. These tender, delicious, freshly made noodles actually taste like the simple ingredients they’re made with — freshly ground golden wheat or dark, rich buckwheat. The texture is just toothy enough to hold up to all sorts of sauces.

Vary the veggies depending on what’s in season and what you have on hand.

Ingredients

  • 2 Tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 shallot, chopped
  • 1 cup sliced cherry tomatoes
  • Juice of 1 Meyer lemon 
  • 1 cup chicken or vegetable stock or more if needed
  • 1 package fresh noodles of your choice
  • 1-2 Tablespoons chimichurri, or to taste
  • Chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the shallot and tomatoes (add salt and pepper to taste) and cook until they’re tender, about 3 to 5 minutes. Add noodles, then stir in the lemon juice, and enough stock to just the noodles. Simmer until the noodles are tender and the sauce has reduced, about 3 minutes. Season with the chimichurri to taste and garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Serve right away.
